As a small business employer I have pretty much had it with shilling insurance for anybody! Being the middleman for insurance companies sucks, I am a fantastic logger, let me do what I do best and find a way to get coverage for anybody who WANTS it.
My plan is simple, a 3% payroll deduction for everybody, no income ceiling...
A *copay for every medical procedure of 10% of your bodywieght, double if you smoke. No exceptions, if you got skin you got to put some of it in the game. To get care beyond a bandaid or Kotex for any injury you gotta double triple prove you are a legal US citizen.
*children excluded..
Any questions?

I’m just curious, why does she? Does it cover prescriptions or services? Does she have a supplemental plan to cover those services that Medicare doesn’t pay for 100% and a prescription plan as well?
A supplemental plan, along with a prescription plan run about $135 per month and, with those plans, there is normally no or very little out of pocket expense.
Of course, if ObamaCare is actually passed – MediCare either will end up not being taken for payment by doctors or services will be unavailable as part of MediCare, e.g. either rationed or simply not offered period. Why? Payments to doctors/hospitals will be reduced by $500 Billion to help pay for a public option under ObamaCare.
It's important, for you and your Grandma, that ObamaCare be defeated.
