Help For the Uninsured

Tuesday December 16, 2008
Those who suddenly find themselves without health insurance coverage may be wondering how they can get the care they need. While the uninsured face difficult challenges in obtaining care, there are several options they can look into, including COBRA continuation coverage, pharmaceutical assistance programs, and community health centers.

We can only hope that our new president will follow through on his promises of healthcare reform and help us save some money. As a webmaster for a group healthcare and financial products broker in Dade and Broward counties in South Florida, I see just how much the costs of care have risen here due to the heavy population of retirees and their needs for prescription drugs and just plain general health pictures. I am approaching retirement myself and have no desire to have to spend my hard earned annuities or IRA and 401K that I have saved as part of my retirement planning on healthcare insurance! Car pooling can help save a little, but healthcare reform would save me a whole lot more.
