Go figure.

Single Payer is on its way in California

California Senate Bill SB-562 continues to make headway.
Here are some of its highlights for Californians and at reduced costs to both us citizens and businesses.

Key features of SB 562 include:

Every Californian eligible to enroll, regardless of age, income, employment or other status.

No out of pocket costs, such as high deductibles and co-pays, for covered health services.

Comprehensive coverage, including hospital and outpatient medical care, primary and preventive care, vision, dental, hearing, women’s reproductive health services, mental health, lab tests, rehab and other basic medical needs.

Lower prescription drug costs.

Long term care services provided under Medi-Cal continue, and will be expanded with an emphasis on community and in-home care.

No narrow insurance networks, one medical card, real patient choice of provider.

No insurance claims denials based on corporate profit goals.
