This week the morning news introduced a site where you can place a little DNA into a cylinder, ship it out, and find out where, 85,000 years ago, your ancester's began. Today, we have people asking policy makers in Washington DC to listen, they are suffering with a tagged, pre-existing condition. Think Washington, how many people are diagnosed because of advances in medicine? And,in this day and age, a large portion of Americans have pre-existing conditions, and they need medical care and medication. Why can't we get to the root of the problem and make sure everyone with a pre-existing condtion is covered even if they change insurance companies. You see, there is always a twist or turn in the written word. How sick can you be?
Reviewing the said statement above regarding DNA, it made me think, in a few years the insurance company maybe asking us to complete this type of testing, then and only then, will they make a choice to cover you for your health care needs. You know, this isn't a thought in the wind, this is happening today... DNA can place labels on you that will never fall off.
In my heart, I believe, our Government should take Health Care, one step at a time, beginning with the most important issues... present them to the people in plain English, to inform and educate, then come to the table!
How do you feel about the future of those with pre-existing conditions?
