3 GREAT REASONS FOR CONSUMER DIRECTED HEALTHCARE! Why, why, why have the government OR the insurance company telling you how to spend YOUR health care dollars??? WHY!!??!! Instead, how about if you get a tax free health savings account that you can spend any way you see fit? Get that MRI, get that viagara, or don't. You decide. [ if you work in the insurance industry then you know that insurance is to cover *unexpected* costs such that an individual doesn't get hit with a cost he/she can't pay for or afford. So is it unpredictable that you need a new pair of glasses? Or get a cold? or get a physical? Or need bandaids? Nope, so insurance shouldn't cover it. And at the same time costs need to be driven down. CDHC does all of this. ] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:263839 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
