Health Care Bill: SEC. 1555. Freedom Not To Participate In Federal Health Insurance Programs.
page: 2share:
The way I'm reading it, it's saying that if a company is offering insurance to its employees, the insurance doesn't have to be the federal type.
So it still seems to require folks have health insurance, but we can opt out of the Big Brother option so long as we have insurance with a private company.

Section 1555 only refers to any "Federal health insurance program", which doesn't exist because they stripped out the public option, it does not mention any private insurance plans. This is just a left over from when the public option was still in the bill and does nothing to stop them from requiring you to have minimum acceptable health insurance.
Section 5000a mentions the requirement to have acceptable minimum health insurance.

Good call, yes it states no mandatory Federal Insurance program.
Of course if the Federal Insurance program is cheaper than private, subsidized by taxes, I wonder what people would do?
Yes, this bill may not set up a Federal Insurance program, but why would it, there already IS ONE.

Thanks for clarifying my post. It is truly scary that peoples reading comprehension's are so lacking. Here it is dumbed down for the masses:
If you start your own insurance company, you don't have to use Federal Program.
If you dont own your own insurance company, you have to buy insurance or they are gonna take out more taxes outta your paycheck at the end of the year. That refund you count on at the end of the year is gonna go bye-bye! If you don't pay that tax at the end of the year, the Tax man is gonna come after you and take your home, your car, seize your bank account, garnish your wages and tack on interest and penalties. Get it yet people? Those that haven't got it yet are either brainwashed or just trolls.

I believe you're misinterpreting that. Form 8889 only applies to those enrolled in an HSA (Health Savings Account). Which isn't mandatory.
Once you enroll, you have to maintain it or pay a penalty because the HSA has disbursable funds which are taxable since they're deposited pre tax.
You can't park money tax-free in an HSA then not maintain it (cancel it, i.e. "fail to remain eligible") and then take the money without being taxed on it.
That's a whole different thing.

The interpretation needs to be clarified. It could be important to the people who find this bill offensive and Big Brother like.
No individual, company, business, nonprofit entity, or health insurance issuer offering group or individual health
Individual, company, business, nonprofit entity = one group
Health insurance issuer offering insurance = another group
Could be argued in court for sure.
If I may - as a foreigner - interpret the above text of legislation 1555 ?
You should read :
1. no individual
2. no company
3. no business
4. no non-profit entity
5. (n)or health insurance issuer offering group or individual health
insurance coverage
shall be required to participate ...
You should maybe not read :
1. no individual offering group or...
2. no company offering group or...
etc.
I am glad to straighten your problems out.

Don't stop there. Let's continue-
...in any Federal health insurance program created under this Act...
There.
If a Federal health insurance program is created under the Act, you don't have to participate in that one. But you are required to have insurance under the Act.

Actually, I believe that HSAs are the blueprint of how the IRS is going to get involved with insurance coverage.

Due to this bill, all private and public health care industries will be part of the Federal Program, therefore it could be construed that any health care is part of the Federal Program.
I show a possible loop-hole for the good guys, and I get lambasted. WTF?

You might have a point. Does it define "federal health programs" in the bill?

reply to post by 911stinks
I looked through every section of the bill that had definitions in it as well as referring to section 2791 of the Public Health Service Act as sec 1551 refers you to. I couldn't find anything that defines a "federal health insurance program" or even "health insurance program" for that matter. There has to be a definition some where. Maybe someone can find it.
BTW S&F for your efforts.

From the looks of it, it just might be cheaper to pay the fines over the cost of having insurance! I don't think any one really knows or understands
whatever is in this "package."

I read it the same way as you:
"18 No individual, company, business, nonprofit entity, or
19 health insurance issuer offering group or individual health
20 insurance coverage"
Sounds to me it is exempting individuals, companies, businesses, etc that OFFER insurance.

Ooooh, I never even thought of that angle. Alright, any corporation license or incorporated in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA could be considered to be a Federal Entity.
If you are licensed to operate, you are therefore under the control of the Federal Government.
You know, this is why I hate the frelling laws in the modern world. Something can be completely different than standard language.
Sorry OP, for my earlier comments.
Just another rabbit hole to peruse.

Just so everyone knows this is what is in the Historic Health Care Bill, look at the actual Reform Bill. It's all in there I checked it myself.
Shock to NBC this morning.
Please do read what the HealthCare Bill MANDATES!
This letter appeared in the Indianapolis Star (which is owned by the same people who own the Arizona Republic ) and was sent to a very popular Indiana Senator. This just goes to show everyone what pressure these Democrats are currently under, so continue to let them know how you feel about the healthcare bill.
Bill Stough
Shock to NBC This morning.
An Indianapolis doctor's letter to Sen. Bayh about the Bill (Note: Dr. Stephen E. Fraser, MD practices as an anesthesiologist in Indianapolis , IN ) Here is a letter I sent to Senator Bayh.. Feel free to copy it and send it around to all other representatives. -- Stephen Fraser
Senator Bayh,
As a practicing physician I have major concerns with the health care bill before Congress. I actually have read the bill and am shocked by the brazenness of the government's proposed involvement in the patient-physician relationship. The very idea that the government will dictate and ration patient care is dangerous and certainly not helpful in designing a health care system that works for all. Every physician I work with agrees that we need to fix our health care system, but the proposed bills currently making their way through congress will be a disaster if passed.
I ask you respectfully and as a patriotic American to look at the following troubling lines that I have read in the bill. You cannot possibly believe that these proposals are in the best interests of the country and our fellow citizens.

Page 239 Line 14-24 HC Bill: Govt will reduce physician services for Medicaid Seniors. (Low-income and the poor are affected.)

Page 341 Lines 3-9: The Govt has authority to disqualify Medicare Advance Plans, HMOs, etc. (Forcing people into the Govt plan)

Page 379 Sec 1191: The Govt creates more bureaucracy via a "Tele-Health Advisory Committee." (Can you say HC by phone?)

Page 425 Lines 17-19: The Govt will instruct and consult regarding living wills, durable powers of attorney, etc. (And it's mandatory!)

Page 494-498: Govt will cover Mental Health Services including defining, creating, and rationing those services.
Senator, I guarantee that I personally will do everything possible to inform patients and my fellow physicians about the dangers of the proposed bills you and your colleagues are debating.
Furthermore, if you vote for a bill that enforces socialized medicine on the country and destroys the doctor-patient relationship, I will do everything in my power to make sure you lose your job in the next election.
