Details
Submitted by[?]: Federal Heritage Party of Hutori
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: October 4520
Description[?]:
| Recognizing that government interference often causes costs to increase, with corresponding decreases in quality and efficiency. This proposal seeks to provide an economic system that makes insurance and healthcare competitive so that the average person will have lower costs and higher quality of care. Article 1) All healthcare insurance providers must make their policies nationally available. Article 2) All healthcare insurance providers must clearly outline what their policies include and what they exclude in language that an average person can comprehend. Article 3) All policies are at will policies, meaning that the insured may terminate a healthcare policy at any time for any reason. However, coverage will also cease upon termination of the policy. Article 4) Insurers are required to abide by the predetermined length of the policy and may not terminate a policy or deny policy renewal for any reason other than breach of contract. |
