Don't Deny Insurance Coverage for Pre-Existing Conditions

Thursday 31 July 2008

Currently many health insurance companies operate in a wild wild west of little or no rules or regulation - unfettered to cherry pick the healthiest and to deny coverage to those who need it the most.

How do insurance companies do this? They look for "pre-existing conditions" - then they can legally deny someone coverage because they have an imperfect bill of health. Insurers might also charge these individuals much higher premiums for their coverage.

Health insurance shouldn't be reserved only for the healthiest among us.

Make sure John McCain and Barack Obama get this message, and tell them they must include everyone in their plans for quality, affordable health care!

Take Action! An Introduction..

Hey all!

I'm Tara. This blog has a purpose in life. Actually, it has many purposes. It all depends on which day you check in. =)

This blog will consist of action alerts... Petitions for you to sign to change the world, ways to help people in need without more than a click, and ways to change your life to improve the quality of it.

Truth be told, much of the content I'll feature here won't be written by me. That's probably a good thing as my own writing tends to get a bit cryptic at times. If you're interested in me (for gods know what reason), I've provided a few different ways to contact me at the bottom of this post.

Bookmark this blog! Check in often. There might be a life-saving alternative or cause for you to check in on. As always...Slainte! ;-)
