[QUOTE="Mark K 2, post: 881027, member: 55685"] And that's what's going to happen in the end. There will probably be some sort of exchange or cooperative formed that will offer coverage for the uninsured. Rates will probably be based on a prorated sliding scale tied to income. People whose incomes are low enough will qualify for free coverage. Contrary to popular belief by some of those on the right, there's a "no man's land" level of income in which people can't afford to purchase private insurance, yet don't qualify for Medicaid. I'm one of those people. I'm a registered nurse who had to take three years off due to PTSD. I was on an EMS call and witnessed the beating death of a child. I'm ready to go back to work and am looking for a job now. However, for these past three years, I've been without insurance. I couldn't afford COBRA and didn't score high enough on the Medicaid grading scale to qualify for their coverage. [/QUOTE]
