Health Care- Mark Warner Mark R. Warner is currently serving as the United States Senator from the Commonwealth of Virginia. Warner is a member of the democratic party, and does believe in Health Care Reform for the United States. For quite some time many people believed that he was going to pursue presidency in the 2008 U.S. presidential elections. Warner decided in 2006 that he would not run, because he wanted to stick close to his family. Warner believes that we need a comprehensive health care reform to achieve a more efficient system, and wants to focus on ensuring all Americans with health coverage. He wants the small businesses to achieve health care, provide children and elderly with health insurance, he wants to cut the spending on health care, and believes the structure that he is setting up will provide a better future for the economy, and cover the people of the U.S. Health care seems to be one of the biggest issues that Warner is focused on, and is taking full action to help achieve Health Care reform. In 2009 Warner voted in favor of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which is also known as "Obama care." He also proposed the package of amendments to the health care reform or "Value & Innovation," to help modernized America 's health care system, and help accelerate the process. The amendments would help expand coverage on health care, encourage improvement in the health care, accelerate the process quicker, and help cut costs. Warner is also focused on small businesses in America, he explains how small businesses pay full retail for their health care, and are the only people that pay fully for health care. Small businesses across America are struggling to keep with up with the economy, finances, and try to expand in America. Warner wants to help small business by cutting health taxes that the small businesses need to pay in order to give health care to their

    In 2015, Delegator William J. Howell, political heir of the Byrd organization and Virginia republican politician, did not want to expand medicaid to the citizens who truly need health care. Howell “is not interested in creative or market-based ways to expand Medicaid and in variations on the Medicaid programs” (Board, 2015). This is because Medicaid is part of Obamacare and Howell strongly opposes Obamacare. Another conservative republican, Mike Pence, also strongly opposed medicaid. However, Pence bargained that the citizens who have medicaid must “pay monthly premiums and, for those who make unnecessary trips to the emergency room, copays” (Board, 2015). The Democrats fear that this new bargain will steer people away from having a healthcare, but Obamacare agreed to the new bargain so the people who have medicaid will be covered. This is a political massive resistance for the citizens who truly need medicaid for…

    Obama states that the cost of the health care was a “threat to our economy” and health care should be a “right for every American”. After Obama became president he pushed the congress to pass the health care act into weekly speeches, on media, and much more. On March 23,2010, President Obama signed the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act”. This law was the main part of bill's improvement towards the United States healthcare system. The Care act was publicized to expand healthcare coverage to the 32 million Americans who were uninsured. “Dismantle or Improving ObamaCare?” An article by Deborah B. Gardner questions, “how will the republicans work to dismantle or change ObamaCAre?”(ProCon). Although the negative individual’s assumption referencing to the American Care Act, “repeal and replace” was a hasty legislative message for republicans in the campaign. Gardner reflects in her article about being in need of the nurses, doctors, and medical advisors to accept how the republicans are devoided to change the Affordable Care Act. It provides an overview on the possible regions that Republicans might decide to change or to remove, which includes removing or improving the Affordable Care Act, the support of repealing or modify the employer mandate, and the cooper plan offer. Gardner believes that is we “put our voices together,…

    The cost of Health Care for Americans was increasing rapidly. “The recession of 1990-91 had brought fears of not being insured to the ranks of the middle class. Employers were shifting the costs of insurance to their employees, and employees were afraid to switch jobs for fear of losing their health insurance. So, in the early 1990s President Clinton called on first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton to lead an effort to enact major health reform legislation” (Wilson, 2013). Health Care Reform was a failure for President Clinton’s…

    The healthcare reform is the process of making sure that healthcare is affordable and accessible to everyone in need and those who are not in need as well. It is a well-known fact that in this economy that more and more Americans either can or can’t afford health care at it’s finest. In fact with that being said nearly 46 million Americans have no insurance and the other half at 25 million are basically underinsured. One factor to take into consideration would be the fact that most employers are not quite offering insurance anymore due the exacerbating costs. In the past the United States had spent approximately 2.4 trillion dollars in healthcare costs alone. It has been replied that healthcare reform platform has very little need, but it needs to be revised and the real question would be how to do it. It has been often suggested that the president should design and implement a program that would be government sponsored for everyone. Another idea was to make sure that prohibitions or discrimination would not be a problem or take place for people with pre-existing conditions. The last thing would be to make sure that clinics would use a given incentive to have the patients practice wellness plans and participate in preventive services. Some officials would say that the Commonwealth Fund was established to help improve healthcare access. The Commonwealth Fund is private foundation that steps in to make sure that the proper measures are taken to improve the quality and greater efficiency in health care. In fact the United States spent twice as much in money as any other country for healthcare in general or to improve the quality but as a mere result 101,000 American citizens still died due to not being insured.…

    The foundation during the Barack Obama’s campaign for the presidency was the health care reform of the U.S. health care system. It was not until a month later into his presidency in the year 2009 that President Obama addressed the issue of the high rising cost of health care and the millions of people in the United States being uninsured. It was not until March 23th 2010, after much debate that President Barack Obama signed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), the U.S. health care reform legislation. The primary objective of the PPACA act is to “provide quality affordable health care for Americans” (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid). Furthermore, the PPACA has the potential to “improve the role of public programs, improve the quality and efficiency of health care, and prevent chronic disease and improve public health” (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid). It has been said that since the passage of Medicare in the year of 1965, the PPACA is “considered the most far-reaching health care reform act” (Levy, Michael).…
