Your question is very difficult to answer. For example; Is an apple better than an orange? With healthcare reform everyone can go about your life more relaxed because you know that should you contact an illness, you can have medical treatment without thinking about what your insurance will cover. Mass health care is medicare the same way that an apple is vitamin C and an orange is vitamin C also.

I am not sure anymore if there is such a thing as health care insurance.  The only healthcare insurance that rides on top is AARP.  I have Medicare and it is not the greatest however doctors must take it.  I also have state Insurance and it is not good at all.  My doctors get paid very little from it and I get treated last even if I am first in line.  It has been horrendous getting quality health care.  It amazes me that there can be so many problems in getting quality healthcare.  It's all about money.

I live in Canada w/Medicare, and let me tell you first hand: there can hardly be amodel that works better than this (for patients, not hospital staff). We have more strikes, and many of our trained health care providers go south, but for the people needing medical attention, its absolutely fabulous.

I have been with out insurance and surviving on generics which are available online. It is helping to save my cost and at the same time with good quality too. It is easy to get online. No insurance premiums too..International Drug Mart is where I get.

Do you think it is wise to get medicine online?  I would think you are taking a big risk and jeopardizing your health.  How do you get the medicine online without a prescription?  Which ever health insurance you can get get it.  Nobody should be without health care.

I am a firm beliver to live and let live a lot of people are into judging people who are different from themselves, like being gay, being over weight, people judge other people from outward apperance, when all that matters is what's in youe heart, my favorite saying is "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone" It is only God's right to judge everyone not ours. thanks Rita60

Medicare or Mass Health care? If you have ever talked to people that live in Ireland who have Mass Health care, you would not be asking this Question, I have had the chance to visit Ireland and speak to a couple about Mass Health Care, their reply was do not go there!!, They said they have to wait many months to even get an appointment with a doctor, an God forbid if you have to have surgery, you will probally Die before the date of surgery because the system is so backed up when the goverment pays for all health care, I say it would be a very bad idea to go Mass Health Care.  Thanks Rita60
