"The president has always said that what is essential is that health insurance reform must lower costs, ensure that there are affordable options for all Americans and it must increase choice and competition in the health insurance market.

This official asked not to be identified in exchange for providing clarity about the intentions of the President. The official said that the White House did not intend to change its messaging and that Sebelius simply meant to echo the president, who has acknowledged that the public option is a tough sell in the Senate and is, at the same time, a must-pass for House Democrats, and is not, in the president's view, the most important element of the reform package".enigma4everhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589997090173140019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15374623.post-29845773582102235652009-08-17T05:46:34.538-04:002009-08-17T05:46:34.538-04:005am

Dear Presid...My Letter I wrote and sent tonight:::<br /><br />Dear President Obama,<br />This weekend we heard rumors that the Public Option was to be abandoned by the <br />White House.I, as an UnInsured Nurse, hope and pray that this is not true, but<br />it was reported by CBS, CNN and the AP. Atleast 52 Million Americans are without<br />ANY Healthcare or Insurance. There are another estimated 14,000 people per day losing Healthcare.<br />It is estimated that Millions more are UnderInsured with their present Insurance<br />refusing care and treatments, or denying coverage.It is also estimated that<br />72% of ALL Bankruptcies are related to Medical Bills and hardship, when Insurance<br />refused or capped out and people were left destitute. No One should be losing their <br />home for Health. <br /><br />We the People do not need Insurance Reform, we need Health Care Reform, because<br />we are in a Healthcare Crisis ( created by the Insurance Industry).<br />Tax Credits will do most Lower Middle Class and Working Poor no good <br />when they have No Insurance and No healthcare and have already been denied <br />and cancelled.<br /><br />Part of the Rumors stem from Secretary Sebellius stating in interviews and <br />on the road that the Co-Op Option is being pursued and would provide affordable care,<br />I have never heard her on cspan tape or interviews speak forcefully for the Public Option.<br />If she is to lead DHHS she must support your lead on this issue and also support the Public <br />Option, and in Public do so. Linda Douglas has done this on Media Interviews and for that<br />I am grateful. ( You did have a Doctor from your Advisory Team speak on a couple of Interviews, but I have not seen her in recent interviews).<br /><br />This past week RAM Medical Team held a Public Event in LA and it is estimated that <br />thousands stood out in the huge lines waiting for basic medical care, and that when <br />all is said and done 100,000 People will be seen by this team at the LA Forum. If you <br />speak to the RAM Director and Founder Ken Brock, he will tell you many were insured <br />or recently unemployed and could not afford basic medical care or Cobra at all.<br /><br />I am asking you please to stay strong on the Issue of True Healthcare Reform,<br />Supporting the Public Option or the Single Player Option. My son and I supported <br />you and your campaign because we believed in you and saw you speak twice, and <br />we believed that you would help Fix This Healthcare Mess. We still have faith in<br />you.enigma4everhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589997090173140019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15374623.post-25164822181655593292009-08-17T01:21:58.668-04:002009-08-17T01:21:58.668-04:00and the APand the APenigma4everhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589997090173140019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15374623.post-12389600304760146912009-08-16T22:58:07.653-04:002009-08-16T22:58:07.653-04:00who reported it, Daily Beast, and CBS - eve news b...who reported it, Daily Beast, and CBS - eve news bit during golf, and huffpo....enigma4everhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589997090173140019noreply@blogger.com
