Many of the working poor don’t qualify for Medicaid, Pell Grants, or student loans, yet can’t afford private insurance or tuition. They are effectively denied healthcare and education. This is a crime against humanity. The UN should invade the US and impose democracy on this one-party aristocracy masquerading as a two-party republic.

It’s a little early to be eating that many mushrooms. The UN can’t invade the USA because they are already here and we as citizens have more guns than they do.

I’m trying to look into the healthcare industry as a possible career. I was just wondering what kind of sites healthcare payors use to see how their day to day is and what kind of information they look at. Thanks.

That would probably be private information. HMO’s have fee schedules that list what they allow for certain procedures, but that’s probably not available except to providers. They don’t "look at information" – they have set schedules, for the most part.

Why would that be important to you in looking for a possible career??

They want to create a healthcare system for everyone. This would be good, but they are not getting to the root of the problem. Healthcare does not make people healthy, nor does taking a pill. These temporarily fix the problem. Eating healthy and exercise make you healthy. I believe that any business that serves unhealthy food or products ie(fast food , cigarettes) should pay for the healthcare system. I know some of you are going to say it is a persons choice to do those things and I agree, but when I have to pay for them through my taxes I have no choice. So because of their bad choices I have to pay. Let me know what you think. I have some other ideas that I will ask later. I just want to see some feedback.

I see your point entirely.

Like putting a tax on a fat burger.
Or a fee on a candy bar
Or double the price of fries and the 50% go to public health education.

I think its a good idea
But
People will die anyway.

I want you to think of something. We all know that a high fat diet increases the risk of a heart attack.
Some of us know that 90% of our health care costs go to the last few years of our lives.
If a person falls over dead because of a massive coronary, then the 90% is reduced considerably.

Kind of ironic, wouldn’t ya say?

I used to be insured by Kaiser. They were pretty big on eating right and exercising. Plus, when I went into one of their hospitals during the flue season, it was next to impossible to get out without getting a free flue shot.

Kaiser is big on preventive care.

Hillary is smart to listen to them.

Peace

when people talk about healthcare in the US they seldom bring up the multitude of cultural issues. Namely, black men regardless of income or education, do not like to get prostate examinations, which is one of the reasons why they have a higher incidents of prostate cancer deaths than whites (btw, white Americans have the highest survival rates for prostate cancer in the world).
The government cannot force men to bend over and get anally probed..can it?

differently ethnicities look at health care differenlty and since the US is a multicutlural nation we should consider that but we don’t
