Health Insurance Connection

Bremer asked:


I have health insurance, but it won’t cover my babies delivery, at least not at our local hospital. I would have to travel to be “in network”. But I am a high risk pregnancy and don’t think I’ll be able to travel for the delivery. Is there some kind of supplemental insurance I can get to ease the pain of the $10,000 I’ll likely be billed for the delivery?

regerugged asked:


Read the Intelligence Report in the 2-20-08 edition of Parade Magazine. Medicare’s budget is 400 billion dollars. The article says 70 billion dollars were paid out in fraudulent claims. That’s 17.5%. Do you still think government run health insurance is a good idea? If the US government ran a program for everyone, what would the budget be? two trillion?
What would be the amount of fraud? 350 billion dollars if the fraud rate stays the same.
