A National Health Arbitration Board

To:- Members of Congress

Re:- Health Care

I support HR676 -- Single payer universal health CARE.

Any reform of the present (obscene) for profit insurance system must:

1. Be portable (no more "move and loose" )

2. Be Inclusive (no condition exclusions)

3. Be comprehensive (cover all needed medical&dental /drugs/ care costs)

4. Be affordable (subject to premium & profit control)

It makes no sense to require coverage for preexisting but allow ins.co to price premiums beyond reach. We should not need both a law degree and a medical degree to understand insurance coverage

No one should be subject in extremis to ins.co bureaucrats or to expensive private arbitration. Any system that keeps the ins. co. as a mechanism of delivery MUST subject the company and the insured to a NATIONAL HEALTH ARBITRATION BOARD.
