Asked by Wiki User

It is difficult to provide an exact percentage as public opinion on health care reform can vary over time and across different surveys. However, various polls conducted in recent years have shown that the percentage of Americans opposing health care reform ranges from around 30% to 50%. Factors such as political affiliation and personal beliefs on the role of government in healthcare can influence these opinions.

No. You get your own heath care. It should NOT just be given out. That would be the government taking care of us which goes against our founding fathers beliefs and what they sacrificed and died for.

What is the toll free telephone number for Humana Insurance?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Start with 888-578-6465. Humana is a huge company with many insurance agents/brokers writing for it. Explain the nature of your question, where you live, and have your policy or contract number available. They can direct you to the proper department. Alternatively, call the agent or broker that sold the contract to you, explain the issue and ask that he/she intervene for you. The agent/broker will likely deal with Humana daily and will have direct contact information so you do not have to endure switchboards.

Why can't i stay on my employers health insurance when i turn 65?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It depends where you live. Some employers do not provide insurance.

In some countries if you are working after you are 65 or your spouse is working, you will be entitled for health insurance from employer. You will be eligible for Medicare even if you continue to work after you turn 65. It is important that you decide whether or not to enroll for medicare. You may not need all of Medicare benefits if you are still covered under your employer's plan. You can delay certain parts of Medicare, and get them later on when you retire, or if you lose your employer's insurance. You should make these decisions at least 3 months before your 65th birthday.

Why do you support the affordable care act?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

That's a political question; about 60% of the American population does NOT support "Obamacare", which was mis-named as the "Affordable Care Act". Just as a general rule of thumb, you can generally count on the fact that any political act is named for the OPPOSITE of its actual effects.

In the case of the "Affordable" care act, it was pretty clear from the outset that it was going to cause health insurance rates to spike UP. Since it also DECREASED the amount that doctors would be paid for treating patients, it has a secondary perverse effect in decreasing the availability of doctors and nurses. Because it mandated that every insurance plan include ten specific conditions that MUST be covered - even if these aren't appropriate for the patient - the price was widely predicted to cause insurance rates to rise uncontrollably. This has in fact happened.

One of the especially perverse incentives for Obamacare was that before, insurance plans were limited in that they could only cover a single State. Obamacare "expanded" this coverage, and now insurance plans cannot cover you if you are in a different COUNTY.

Is the healthcare free in Canada?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Healthcare is not entirely free to the individual but close. Canadians have to pay for some or all drugs and dental work and glasses. Also, cosmetic surgery and some other kinds of purely elective surgery are not considered essential care and are generally not covered.

Of course nothing is actually free. It's paid for out of taxes people pay, but there's not a direct charge to individuals when they go to the doctor or hospital, etc.
