No Nurses In The Unemployment Lines

[...] I know that some hospitals are struggling to make ends meet and are unable to boost benefits or pay for their nurses. But why are some hospitals spending money on artwork and spa services when there’s a nationwide shortage of nurses? Why not channel that money into recruitment efforts, education grants, and higher salaries and benefits for nurses? [...]

Heart Attacks Down But Tobacco Tax Revenue Dwindling

[...] I’m thrilled that the Pueblo smoking ban has yielded such positive effects on the health of the population, and I’m glad that the rest of the state followed suit a few years later. Now let’s hope that the state can figure out the funding for programs like Medicaid and SCHIP - both of which provide health insurance to Colorado populations that desperately need it - despite dwindling tobacco sales.

Big Pharma Likes The Free Market

[...] What it really boils down to is that it doesn’t matter how great the drugs are if people can’t afford them. Here in Colorado we’ve seen more and more health insurance carriers increase copays for drugs, add prescription deductibles, or cover only generic drugs in an effort to keep prescription costs under control. [...]

The Future Of Our Health Care System

[...] Here in Colorado, Cigna has just started offering individual health insurance policies, and Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield has rolled out their new Smart Sense plan for individuals. I doubt that reputable carriers like Cigna and Anthem would be putting time and money into new plans if they sensed single payer health care just around the corner.

United HealthCare Lets You Buy Future Insurability

[...] Golden Rule has launched Continuity in 25 states, and is working to roll out the program in the other states where they market policies. Colorado isn’t one of the first 25 states, although Golden Rule is a big part of the individual health insurance market here, so I expect that we’ll see the Continuity option here before long. [...]

United Healthcare Eliminates FACT Fee

United Healthcare/Golden Rule has always required that members joined an association called “FACT” in order to purchase the health insurance.  It was only $3/month, but it was still annoying.  For applicants submitting new applications from today on, there is no more FACT fee!

Lowering Our Health Insurance Premiums

[...] We did the same math that we always encourage our clients to do when considering various deductible levels. Our current health insurance policy has a $3,000 deductible, and costs $498/month. We found an option with a $5,000 deductible for $341/month. Switching to the $5000 deductible saves $1,884/year in premiums. [...]

The Art And Science Of Choosing Providers

[...] Provider quality rankings are a piece of the puzzle for sure, but they’re not the only piece. I do think they will get more popular if health insurance carriers start actively encouraging patients to select from among the highest ranking providers. But there are other factors that go into choosing a provider that can’t be quantified on a spreadsheet or a graph.

Rescinded Health Insurance Policies Getting Reinstated

I’m curious to see how the situation in CA will affect our health insurance industry practices here in Colorado. I firmly believe that health insurance companies should do their homework before approving a policy, and that once a policy is issued by the insurer and accepted by the member, it should be a binding agreement. I know that would cost the health insurance companies [...]
