There are currently over 150 community-based NONPROFIT Health Plans/Insurance Organizations (and affiliates) operating in about 45 states of the Union and the District of Columbia offering LOWER-COST premiums, along with BROADER COVERAGE MENUS and CARE SERVICES — than what the antitrust-exempt For-Profit/Big Health Insurance carriers have been whittling away in their “punitive, profit-obsessive” business practices. The only way to break this century-old pattern of this “Live-or-Let-Die,” systemically institutionalized DENIALS- and RESCISSIONS-based For-Profit/Big Health Insurance (claiming an estimated 44,800 needless American deaths annually, according to a recent Harvard Medical study) is for consumers to take action with their checkbooks, working outside of Big Healthcare’s criminally complicit federal government by shifting your much-deserved business and health insurance coverage to “ethics-based” NONPROFIT Health Plans. Our nonprofit-based advocacy organization, Americans for Nonprofit Universal Healthcare (ANUH), assembled this online PDF'ed spreadsheet “Directory of U.S. NONPROFIT Community Health Plans,” featuring single-click or pastable hyperlinks to state and municipal, community-based health plans in 45 states across the U.S. (QUICK TIP: In order to try to find a "Nonprofit Community Health Plan" in your area, I would suggest you go to the "FIND" function of your presentation player or from a downloaded PDF, then typing in your state abbreviation, such as CA for California and NY for New York, and so on.) Only you, American consumers, can drive "true" Healthcare Reform, and that's by using your checkbooks/pocketbooks to pull your money out of price-fixed, antitrust-exempt "For-Profit/Big Health Insurance" premiums in "monopolized" State-Run Health Insurance Exchanges and opt instead to spend MUCH LESS and get MUCH MORE in terms of coverage areas and peace-of-mind with community- and ethics-based NONPROFIT Community Health Plan/Insurance organizations. You have that the POWER and the federal government and their minders/contributors from For-Profit/Big Health Insurance should NOT be granted the "antitrust-exempt monopoly powers" (from the long-standing, 70-plus-year-old federally sanctioned McCarran-Ferguson Act of 1945) to threaten, exploit, punish and suppress you any longer! Stay well and Keep the Faith and Good Fight for Universal Healthcare coming to America someday soon! Please visit Americans for Nonprofit Universal Healthcare (ANUH) for more information on our "advocacy statements," position papers, research and presentation videos and graphics at http://www.AmericansForNonprofitUniversalHealthcare.weebly.com.Thank you for your time and interest in obtaining quality healthcare and socioeconomic justice!Sincerely,Michael A. FreemanExecutive DirectorAmericans for Nonproit Universal Healthcare (ANUH)
