Today in America, many more of its population is in need of affordable health care. To make matters worse, the average worker is finding that the level of cover he received for himself and his family is being reduced. In this instance I speak with experience because my health care service has reduced this year for the first time ever. It was quite sudden although my employer said he had been looking into changing our health car company because our current one was just too costly.

They said it was necessary if all their employees were to have the same level of health care. Some people will argue of course, that my new insurance is still fantastic and I am fortunate to have it. The new insurance company may be cheaper for the company but it is not for me because to have my husband and daughter in the plan costs double what it did with the previous provider. Lower cost cover may be available for all my colleagues now plus the company has saved money but if I want to keep my family on the plan, I will have to settle for a lower income.

I suppose my health care plan is still good but this new company is not as good as the old one. Many workers saw their paychecks reduce when this new affordable health care scheme come into force. You see, four years ago, I gave birth to a little girl and of course my old insurance paid for the whole of my hospital stay. Whereas if I were to have that same stay in hospital today it would cost over 4,000 dollars.

You also have to bear in mind that this additional expense is just the hospital bill and does not include the additional work fees I must now pay. The availability of affordable health care plans is on the increase which should help those less fortunate. For workers in companies without health care plans and single mums for instance, this is a God send. In principle, these plans are a good thing but there are always those that misuse it making the situation difficult for genuine cases.

I feel sorry for those in genuine need of affordable health care who must look around and see others who are just sponges on the system: a financial burden to the state. Taxpayers, such as me, are contributing to the vast number of programs currently available. My employer definitely found advantages in finding a lower cost health plan provider for their employees! Less take home pay was the result of my companys health provider switch with many of its workforce the ones seeing less money to take home for their families. Providing health care which is affordable for Americans needs to be dealt with sooner rather than later.
