petition for health care reform
Health Care Reform - YOU can make a difference
Because you know someone, or are someone, with a genetic predisposition toward heart rhythm abnormalities, you have a unique voice to shape Health Care Reform in the United States. Right now politicians are negotiating what will and will not be included in the “Quality Affordable Health Care for All Americans” Bill presented by Senator Ted Kennedy. Three critical features must remain in this bill and become law. 1. Group and individual health care plans must cover any preexisting conditions.2. Premiums for health care plans shall not be rated based upon health status, gender, genetic status or claims experience. 3. Free market programs must prevail but all Americans must have access to the same kind of meaningful choices of health benefits plans that Members of Congress, as Federal employees, enjoy through the Federal employee health benefit program.
