Mid-Michigan Coalition for Health Care Reform (MidMcHCR) is working to influence Congress to pass National Health Care Reform legislation that expands and improves upon the Medicare model as an option for all Americans. A program modeled on Medicare that included prevention would cost less than our present system, provide a choice of programs and cover everyone. We seek to inform our community about health care issues, organize and promote local events and activities and encourage citizens to communicate with Congress and the media through phone calls, emails, letters, petitions, newspapers, blogs, personal networks and personal visits.
Anyone can read and comment on our blog. If you wish to be authorized to post entries, please email me at whitetigerspaceATgmail.com with your real name, phone number and email address and I will add you as a blog author which will allow you to initiate posts.
Thanks, Ramona = the white tiger
The mission statement says, "the system must reimburse medical providers and hospitals adequately so as to preserve their economic viability." I think rather than insuring their economic viability we need to "provide adequate reimbursement to ensure an adequate supply of providers so Americans can receive the care they need". This entire campaign needs to be all about Americans who need health care, not about the viability or profits of insurers, providers or any other entity.
