Health Insurance Must Change: Here's How To Change It

This is a re-post of an article by John Goodman for Forbes.  The ideas expressed in the article is what I have been saying and trying to show my clients for a long time.  It is well worth reading.  JE Health Care Solutions has programs available that fit this concept.  For more info about this CLICK HERE.

Everyone needs to rethink how they are going to afford good and strong healthcare for their family's, that they and their doctor controls and not a third party.

Obama Administration Health Care Rule Making Is a Disordered Mes

Re-post from John Goodman with NCPA:

These are the same people that want to control of your healthcare.  This is why obamacare needs to be overturned or repealed.  Obama and the rest of his gang want to by-pass Congress and just do what ever they want.  This is not what America is about.

Why is the FDA Attacking Dietary Supplements That Have Been Used Safely for Decades?


Once again we at JE Health Care Solutions is sounding the alarm.  The FDA now wants to take away your ability to get Natural Supplements.

 
Once again the FDA is looking out for the Big Drug Companies, instead of protecting the people.  In Dr. Mercola's article of April 23, 2012 he shows how the FDA is trying to bypass Congress by issuing "Draft Guidance on New Dietary Ingredients."

Over 60 Billion Doses a Year and Not ONE Death, But Still Not Safe?


Vitamins, minerals and herbal supplements have a tremendously safe track record, yet they are often singled out as being potentially dangerous by government agencies like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This – the notion that dietary supplements are unsafe -- is the premise behind the FDA's Draft Guidance on New Dietary Ingredients, which would require the supplement industry to prove the safety of natural ingredients that, in many cases, have been on the market and used safely for decades.
As new research from the American Association of Poison Control Centers' National Poison Data System reveals, there were zero deaths linked to nutritional supplements in 2010, the most current data available.

I strongly urge you to read this article and then contact you Reps. And Senators in Washington and demand that they stop the FDA from trying to bypass the:
  
Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 which states that:

"The Federal Government should not take any actions to impose unreasonable regulatory barriers limiting or slowing the flow of safe products and accurate information to consumers."

Please take action to protect your rights, and contact your Representatives now.  Dr. Mercola includes a sample letter in his post.  I also urge you to tell your Representatives to get the Big Drug companies out of the FDA and make it an agency that protects the people instead of protecting the drug companies profits.

IDEAL HEALTH REFORM


Interesting article by John Goodman with NACP:

He makes some very interesting points, that if we take the time to look at it with logic it makes a lot of common sense which those in DC have forgot how to do. 

This is what JE Health Care Solutions has been talking about for the last year.  We have got to start understanding that government is not the answer to all things.  When the government gets involved it will usually mean the cost will be much higher and full of waste.  This is the nature of government.  

I will be doing a blog on Friday showing some different options to help you deal with the high cost of your healthcare, and take control of your healthcare.

What if We Regulated Legal Services Like Health Care?

This is a very interesting post from   with NCPA.  Can you guess what lawyers would have to say if congress tried to do this.  

But if you think about it that is what the lawyers are trying to do in congress with healthcare, so turn about is fair play.  Remember most of the people in congress are lawyers.

Is There a Republican Alternative to ObamaCare?

I think this article by John Goodman with NCPA shows why nothing get done in Washington.  Everything is used as a election football  instead of getting to work and make some common sense answers to the problem. 

Obamacare is not the answer but ever time some one that is not a progressive and believe that the government is the only answer, don't do anything but tear it apart and call the other side names or worst.  I far one am tired of the games, How About You.

I hope you find this article as interesting as I did.  CLICK HERE for the full article.

How Obamacare Dramatically Increases the Cost of Insurance for Young Workers

From Forbes
Avik Roy, Contributor
The Apothecary is a blog about health-care and entitlement reform.
 
In 2009, during the height of the debate over Obamacare, the law’s architect, MIT economist Jonathan Gruber, was all over the op-ed pages, talking about how the bill would reduce the cost of health insurance. “What we know for sure,” he told Ezra Klein, “is that [the bill] will lower the cost of buying non-group health insurance.” His words were trumpeted by the law’s advocates, and were critical to persuading skittish Democrats to vote for the bill. But it turns out that “for sure” doesn’t mean what you thought it did. Because, now, Gruber is quietly telling state governments that the law will significantly increase the cost of insurance. And it will especially do so for young Americans: the ones who most struggle to find affordable health coverage.

Health Industries Weigh In On Supreme Court Case

Read this post was a great deal of attention.  It is from Kaiser Health News.  If you read between the lines it shows what happen during the healthcare war in congress.  This shows that when government gets in bed with big business the people get left out of the process.  Each of these groups had a lot of input into this law, but we the people were left out.  This is why, in my of looking at this law it needs to be gone and some common sense solutions found.  The CBO has already almost doubled the projected cost sense the bill was passed.  We must move to a consumer driven program and get the government out of our healthcare.  We also need to take responsibility for our own health care and quite looking for someone else to pay for it.

How Much Should Health Insurance Cost?

Re-post from John Goodman Filed under Health Alerts on March 7, 2012.

This post talks about something I have been saying for a long time.  I hope you will check it out.  This is the reason JE Health Care Solutions was started to help people understand how health insurance works and how they can save money  and get better care that they control instead of a 3rd party.

Please Support HR 1364 for "Free Speech About Science Act (HR 1364)

Congressmen Jason Chaffetz (R–UT) and Jared Polis (D–CO) have introduced the Free Speech about Science Act (HR 1364), a landmark legislation that would allow the flow of legitimate scientific and educational information.7 The new bill provides a limited and carefully targeted change to FDA regulations so that manufacturers and producers may reference legitimate, peer-reviewed scientific studies without converting a natural food or dietary supplement into an "unapproved drug." According to Rep. Chaffetz's website, the provisions of HR 1364 do the following8:
  • Allow dietary supplements and healthy foods to cite legitimate scientific research
  • Provide a clear definition of the types of research that may be referenced by growers and manufacturers
  • Ensure that referencing such research does not convert a food or dietary supplement into an "unapproved (and therefore illegal) new drug"
  • Retain the authority of FDA and FTC to pursue any fraudulent and misleading statements
According to Rep. Chaffetz9:
"It is important for individuals and families to take charge of their personal health by making the right decisions to get and stay healthy. This includes accessing information so that individuals can adjust habits, eat healthfully, and take appropriate dietary supplements to prevent and even treat health conditions.
The Free Speech About Science Act helps insure their access to legitimate scientific research to make the necessary decisions to improve their personal health and the health of their families."
Rep. Polis adds10:
"Today's science has shown that vitamins and nutritional supplements can offer successful, natural alternatives to drugs. As we begin to reform our nation's healthcare system, supplements are an innovative way to help reduce costs.
The Free Speech About Science Act is a common sense act that will make it easier for doctors and consumers to learn about the cheaper, healthier alternatives to costly medicines that food and nutritional supplements provide."
As of December 2011, HR 1364 is in the first step in the legislative process and has been referred to committee. The majority of bills never make it out of committee, so we need your help.
Please lend HR 1364 your support by signing on as a co-sponsor TODAY.
Use the Alliance for Natural Health's HR 1364 page to send a letter to your representative in support of this bill.11 And forward or post this article to all of your friends and loved ones who care about their health and their right to informed consent. With your combined influence we can be a powerful force for much-needed change.

Why am I asking for your help and support for this bill?  This Article by Dr. Mercola  on March 7, 2012 will explain why I think it is important.  

Story at-a-glance

  • The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sent a warning letter to Diamond Food for making truthful, science-backed health claims about the omega-3 fats in walnuts
  • Because the research cited health claims that omega-3 fats in walnuts may prevent or protect against disease, the FDA said walnuts would be considered “new drugs” and as such would require a new drug application to become FDA-approved
  • Under current FDA law, if a food or natural supplement makes a medical claim, it's automatically classified as a drug
  • Regulations currently prohibit manufacturers of dietary supplements or producers of food from referring to any scientific study documenting the potential effect of the substance on a health condition, punishable by large fines and even jail, even if the science is completely credible and true
  • You can help by supporting the Free Speech about Science Act (HR 1364), a landmark legislation that would change FDA regulations so that manufacturers and producers may reference legitimate, peer-reviewed scientific studies without converting a natural food or dietary supplement into an "unapproved drug" 
This article shows how the FDA is totally controlled by the Big Drug companies. This bill would stop this bought and paid for agency from taking another Constitutional Right away from you.  As Dr Mercola asked in his article:

Is it Not a Constitutional Right to Share Truthful, Scientific Information?

This is so ridiculous, as censoring a food producer's right to inform others about scientific research is in violation of the first amendment. The American Association for Health Freedom (AAHF) states:
"The FDA ignores first amendment protections and censors the communication of valid scientific information. The agency seems to have lost sight of its mandate to protect the public and has instead come to see itself as the guardian of corporate interests."
Can you imagine the drug companies not being permitted to tell you what their products could do for you... do you think they would roll over for that? Not a chance, but they don't have to simply because they are the ones who can afford the FDA's approval process. With few exceptions, it's impossible for food producers to assume such costs for natural and therefore non-patentable products.
It's ludicrous for the FDA to require natural products to be "vetted" the same way as drugs. In nearly every case, natural products are safer and more effective than synthetic drugs, as science has shown, time and time again. Not to mention that natural agents are much less expensive than pharmaceuticals, and can even be grown in your backyard!
It's unfortunate that the FDA is so beholden to the drug industry that it would waste it's time to attack a walnut manufacturer for citing scientific research while allowing Frito Lay to claim that its Lay's potato chips are "heart healthy."
And walnut producers are not alone. Cherry growers have also been threatened by the FDA with jail time if their websites even contain links to scientific studies from Harvard and elsewhere, outlining the health benefits of cherries for gout or arthritis pain.4 Green tea growers have received similar threats. As I said, it truly boggles the mind…

This why I am asking all my readers to join me in backing HR 1364 by going to the Alliance for Natural Health's site and signing the letter to your Rep.'s  in Washington to co-sponsor this important bill.  I also ask you to pass this on to your friends and ask them to join with us to get this important bill passed.  I also suggest you read the entire article by Dr. Mercola title:  "This Popular Nut Slashed Breast Cancer Risk in Mice by 50%"

Thanks for your help in this important task, remember you should have control of your healthcare not the government or the insurance companies.

    Thought my readers would find this interesting Article By Dr. Mercola.  
    We here at JE Health Care Solutions Hope our blog post are educational and help you to become an informed healthcare consumer.  If there is a subject that you would like to know more about please leave us a comment and we will try our best to find the information for you.

    According to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, 200,000 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed each year in the US, making it three times more common than other gynecological cancers.
    Breast cancer will claim the lives of 40,000 people this year.
    In fact, the only type of cancer that claims the lives of more women is lung cancer.
    Even more disturbing is the speed at which breast cancer rates have risen over the past 5 decades.
    In 1960, one in 20 women was diagnosed—but today, it is one in seven.
    The following are some important facts about this type of cancer:1
    • Breast cancer is the leading cause of death for women age 40 to 55.
    • 15 percent of all breast cancers occur in women under age 45; in this age group, breast cancers are more aggressive and have lower recovery rates.
    • 80 percent of breast lumps are NON-cancerous.
    • 70 percent of breast cancers are found through breast self-exams.
    • About 80 percent of women diagnosed with breast cancer have no family history of breast cancer.

    Helping Consumers Choose Health Plans In Exchanges: Best Practice Recommendations

    This is a re-post from Health Affairs published on their blog today 2/29/2012.  I thought it might be helpful to my readers.  I still have problems with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), because it still is a third party healthcare delivery system and not quality healthcare controlled by you and your doctor. 

    Until you take responsibility for your who healthcare and stop wanting someone else to pay for it, you will not have the control of your care or the cost.  Their are option available but you will need to we willing to do the research and ask the right questions.  

    Here are a few ideas:
    1)  Go with a high deductible no frills plan to cover the major problems.
    2)  Pay cash of your regular Doctor visits, and other routine expenses.
    3)  Look at accident plans that pay per accident.  Example NACD (National Association of Consumers Direct)
    4)  Add a program that gives you PPO discounts for your Doctor and other routine expenses, (lab, Rx, vision, Dental, etc.

    For more information on your options go to JE Health Care Solutions web site and if you have questions just contact us.  We Are Here To Help You To Take Control of Your Healthcare.
