Several States in the US have begun to overhaul their health care systems to make it affordable and competitive enough Americans can say they have a choice. They mostly hit snags when the question of rising costs and making it more accessible are asked sometimes ending in gridlock. They could learn from UK officials who affected reforms that had premiums rise a bit that resulted in many complaints from their constituents. When the financial crisis began and health care was one of the first casualties of the crunch, but what do you know, the raised prices they asked for worked and even earned city hall enough money to re-direct it to their schools. Students stayed in school, constituents still had healthcare they could afford, everybody was happy. The crisis could have been avoided if lawmakers in the US hadn’t been so engrossed in the business of their military expenditure and other issues such as the elections, experts have predicted it sometime ago but still people were caught so off guard, they lost their insurance benefits. It just happened too darned fast and nobody could have stopped the problems, even the president, for the money needed was elsewhere and the financial crisis back home didn’t help either. It will be sometime before the smoke clears and we could see if all the promises and plans get implemented into viable affordable health care plans for all. Let us just pray they can do it in time before more Americans die of the lack of insurance.
