Healthcare Choice, Security and Stability From Health Insurance Reform

medical insurance quotes

Rising health care costs are somewhat relieved thanks to health insurance reform.

  • Florida has a hidden tax on healthcare, created because of uncompensated care. This would be eliminated as more and more people get coverage.

  • Premium tax credits would provide help for 2.5 million Floridians to cover the cost of healthcare. Without these reforms, the present $19.4 billion in out-of-pocket expenses would rise to $35.4 billion by 2019.

The choice and portability of the new healthcare reformed plan gives people more choices in health insurance coverage and ensures their medical insurance coverage, despite job changing, unemployment or illness.

  • 4 million Floridians are uninsured. Without reform that number could grow to 5.9 million by 2019. The health insurance exchange market will assist those without coverage, as well as the 1.1 million Floridians with individual insurance.

  • Long-term home care and community based services are supported with this new plan. Estimates state that long term care will be needed by 65% of people 65 and older. Such care is about $18,000 yearly. There are 1.5 million Floridians between the ages of 55 and 64 who will need this care. Such things are not typically covered by Medicaid, Medicare or even private health insurance.

  • Cash benefits will be provided to seniors and the disabled to get services from home, so they can remain in their communities while receiving long-term care.

  • 488,000 disabled Floridians on Medicaid disability income could benefit from a new Medicaid home based and community based services. This would cut the need for nursing homes.
