[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 299646, member: 4040"] Right now, we have health insurance (knock on wood), but I have been without insurance many times over the past few years. That meant no preventative care, no mammograms, no "yearly checkup", no flu shots, no nothing, unless I was really sick. Then I went to Urgent Care, if I had room on my MasterCard, or the ER, and let the county pay for it in the end. Miss KT had Medi-Cal, most of the time. What I would like to see from the national health plan is a safety net, to make health care available at an affordable rate to people who do not have insurance. We all know having preventative care available keeps people healthier, and keeps them from going to the ER for non-emergency things. That allows ERs to do what they are designed to do...take care of emergencies. [/QUOTE]
