If there was ever any hope of understanding what needs to be fixed in the health care system, this election isn’t going to do it. Honestly, look at what has gone before now. We have mandatory health insurance for 2014 and a variety of other things, like health insurance exchanges, and yet the costs keep rising. You can bet the health system and the insurance industry will make sure they still line their nests with money. Where does that leave you and me? Standing out in the cold, wondering what is coming next, how much it will cost, how they will pay for it, what policies will they be able to get, who will enforce the fine for not having insurance, and whether or not any of this stuff is constitutional. Good question. Do you think it is? If you don’t think so, make sure your local politician hears about it. Your vote still carries power.

No surprises in this election campaign relating to health care. Once again it is the whipping boy. The program everyone trots out to highlight their successes – sort of – because most politicians, until they get voted in, are pretty cautious talking about health issues. It’s a major hot button with Americans, in particular the mandatory health insurance provision to be implemented in 2014. Unfortunately, health care is a political issue because there are far too many people who make money from the system, and since money rules, that is likely the way it will stay in some form or another. Even with mandated health insurance, someone will make buckets of money. It sure won’t be Joe America, struggling to put food on the table. There is something inherently wrong with that picture. Think carefully before you cast your vote.

Not having health insurance does not save you money. You only think it does. What happens if you get into a car accident tomorrow, which isn’t such a far-fetched scenario, and you need surgery and a long recovery to be able to walk again? You do not have health insurance, because you were saving the money for something else or thought you did not need it.

So who will pay your medical bills? Or more to the point, how will you pay your medical bills? No one has that kind of money lying around or stashed in their mattress. Without health insurance, you will be in debt for months, if not years. How have you saved money by not having health insurance? You haven’t, and that’s the hard, cold truth.

No matter how many times people think this, they often do the opposite. What is it? They think about calling a local insurance agent at a smaller company, but instead, call a big name insurance company because they think they will get better service and pricing. This is not always the case. In fact, the bigger the company, the less engaged they are with their customers in not only the same state, but in another state too.

If you ever want to try and settle the insurance claim, try dealing with an out-of-state insurance company who does not know you and could really care less about you, unless you don’t pay your premiums. Local is the way to go.

Agents know their regional areas and who is the best person to see for various things. They also know who pays claims and who doesn’t and which hospital is better and closer to you. If you live in Pennsylvania, and buy insurance out of a company in Florida, they have no clue where your nearest hospital is.

As the economic conditions continue to be uncertain, it is not surprising that employee loyalty over the last 3 years has decreased. So business owners are searching for different ways to not only keep the employees they have from moving on, but search for new talent to join their company.

A good starting point for business owners is to take a look at their health insurance offering. If their current offering is no longer competitive compared to similar companies, they run the risk of losing employees during this time of dwindling employee loyalty.

Make sure you dont lose your most valuable resource because your employee benefits package is outdated. It's the perfect way to improve your employees' financial health without handing out raises.

This is a really interesting question. Do you think health care reform will still be with us in 2014? Judging by what is and is not going on in Congress these days, the answer to that is maybe. It cannot be otherwise when politics in involved in something so major that it directly affects every American’s access to health care.

Then, do not forget about the lawsuit that several states filed saying that mandating that people buy health insurance is unconstitutional. That case is still rattling about the court room. What will the decision be? Who knows, but whatever it is, it will have an impact on health care reform in many different ways.

Will we get to the point where we have to buy health care insurance or else? If we do, how will those who live under a bridge or in shanty towns pay for it? How will low income families pay for it? Ultimately, how will all of this affect the American taxpayer? Food for thought, indeed.

If you do not have two clues what your health insurance policy says, join a crowd of millions who figure they can find that out later when they need to know or when they need to use their policy. The problem with that is if they wait until the need to use the health insurance and THEN find out what they thought was covered, is not, it’s not a good day for anyone.

This cannot be emphasized enough. Read the four corners of your health insurance policy simply because if you know what is and what is not covered, you will not get any surprises later and wonder why something is NOT covered. Why wait until you get a claim denied to find out that what you thought “was” covered isn’t in your health insurance policy?

Do not make the mistake of thinking that health insurance companies really have your best interests in mind, because the truth is that they are in business for one thing, to make money. Actually, any business has the same point of view. They are in business to make a living and provide a service. The service of providing health insurance is a bit different that selling bagels, but you get the idea.

If you want health insurance, you pay a company to take the risk to cover you. They figure you should take care of yourself and not cost them money. Unfortunately, things do not always work out that way and you do get sick and they do have to pay on your claims.

Sadly, there are cases every year where insurance companies deny claims for what appears to be unreasonable requirements. Before you buy health insurance, check everything out from what is included in the coverage to what is not and from what will make them terminate your coverage to when they are going to raise the rates next. Being informed in advance means you will not get too upset if they refuse or reduce a claim.
