[QUOTE="Bigrick31, post: 6279326, member: 553354"] I could see this causing employment discrimination based on how large of a family a potential employee has. The larger the family of the potential employee equals greater health care costs to the employer Id personally like a health care program in which no one pays for necessary medical care Would this also mean no exclusion for pre existing condition? That’s a lot of money for either party to pay. My current medical coverage covers 80% of all medical bills and paying 20% of an X ray is still a lot of money to me they are at least $100 a pop after my insurance picks up the bill. In order for this to work medical costs would have to be lowered considerably. I was once in a car accident and my back was really bothering me so I had to go to the emergency room. There I waited 4 hours until a doctor could see me. I went in described the accident to the doctor he asked me to lift my arms over my head and then to my side gave me a prescription for vicodin and a bill for $300. Excessive I think so! Again at 25% unless medical costs are lowered is too high in my opinion. People anrt going to take advantage of their coverage because they cant afford their deductibles which is why I would like to see a program in which employers and employees pay nothing for heath care and everyone gets the care they need. Again at paying only 20% for my health care bills I don’t always go to the doctor when I should because I don’t want to pay my deductibles. [/QUOTE]
