Health Care Reform Part 1

Here is the New York Times Topics page on Health Care Reform. Begin by reading the Overview on this page (notice that you need to expand the article by clicking Read More). We will be looking to investigate three main areas in the next three weeks: How does the Health Care system work in the United States; what is the Democratic Party proposing in the way of reform; what is the response by the Republican Party. You will write a position paper that covers one aspect of this research that will be due November 19th. Each of you will once again need to post two articles to the blog each week and you also must comment on at least five articles per week.

    This is an interesting point I hadn't thought about:
    "Insurers say they are willing to accept all applicants for coverage, regardless of illness or disability, if Congress requires everyone to have insurance. Without such a requirement, insurers say, many people will not buy health insurance until they need it."
    Obviously, if people didn't need insurance and could get it after they were hurt, they would. I never thought about that.
