Extract

Health Care Insurance is a family matter. Based on a study from the National Academy of Sciences almost 40 million people in this country lack health care insurance. That's more than the population of Texas, Florida, and Connecticut combined. The uninsured people without Medicaid Health Care are more likely to have poorer health and die prematurely, then those that do have health insurance.
According to the National Academy of Sciences more than one in five families have at least one uninsured member. But all members of those families are less likely to get needed Medical Health Care because the cost of that care is more likely to put a strain on family finances. Families or individuals without Medicaid health insurance feel that they can't just go to any doctor and get medical treatment that allows them to pay with a payment plan. So instead of getting the medical treatment they need, people just ignore going to the doctor and buy less expensive over the counter medicines. Hospitals do see you in emergency situations and you can't be turned away from treatment. The Funny thing about this situation is low income families that can't afford health insurance receive free Medicaid assistance, but the average middle class family or individual who does not qualify for Medicaid health care can't afford to pay for health care so they do without.
