  • This slideshow says that reform mainly targets the insurence companies and no effort will be made toward the providers. THis is BS. Obama has made it very clear that insuring everyone is not the main goal of reform. It just hogs most of the attention!

  • Actually, this slide makes a number of huge mistakes by conflating “exchanges” with “co-ops.” They're two completely separate concepts. A health insurance exchange is a heavily regulated “market” for individual insurance programs. It may include private plans, co-ops, and a public plan… or any mix of those three. The point, however, is to create a means of gradually moving people away from employment-based plans to individual plans by creating an environment in which individual consumers won't get screwed over. A “co-op,” by contrast, is an idea for a privately owned, “non-profit” insurance program that Senator Kent Conrad basically made up a few months ago as an excuse to oppose a government-managed insurance program. Co-ops are very poorly defined and it's possible that money-grubbing insurance giants like Blue Cross/Blue Shield would even be able to qualify for “co-op” status. So basically: Exchanges = Great Idea
    Co-Ops = Underdeveloped and potentially bad idea With that said, this presentation badly mischaracterizes the plans floating around congress. The Wyden-Bennett plan is based around a strong exchange, but the presentation doesn't categorize it as an exchange-based plan… despite the fact that it is arguably the best and most viable example of such a plan. Similarly, Obama's plan and HR3200 also include exchanges (but not co-ops). The only plan that will likely have a co-op will be the bill coming out of the Senate Finance Committee.

  • This is a really great slide show, but, “It takes 4 napkins?” No… apparently it takes 51 napkins.
