The Number of Uninsured Atlanta Residents is rising!
-
Do you know that the percentage of Atlanta residents who do not have health insurance is increasing at an alarming rate? Do you know this could translate into a major catastrophe? If you don't know these facts, read this:
Reasons why uninsured Atlanta residents are increasing
-
About 38% of Atlanta’s workers are staffed in small firms, which do not offer group health insurance to their employees.
-
Online health insurance quotes have been rising at an average rate of 13% over the last 5 years, while the inflation has remained constant at 2.5%. This means some people consider medical insurance plans unaffordable.
-
Job cuts, outsourcing of services to developing nations, a poor home market, the sub-prime crisis and the wars have taken their toll on the American economy and many out-of-work Atlanta residents just cannot afford to buy medical insurance.
The consequences of not having health insurance
-
The obvious harm of not having medical insurance is that health is compromised. As preventive check-ups get compromised, an uninsured American may discover a disease only when it has reached endemic proportions. The result can be mortality or a phenomenal out-of-pocket expense.
-
Children are the future of any country and if the uninsured ones amongst them do not receive adequate healthcare because it is unaffordable, then the future of a country is compromised.
-
The uninsured are always asked to deposit their fees in advance. If they don't, they won't receive healthcare, unless they are facing a life-threatening situation.
-
According to statistics about 1/3rd of uninsured Atlanta residents face difficulties in paying their medical bills. The result is that they suffer embarrassment when they find collection agents at their doorstep.
-
The American economy loses about $100 million every year looking after the healthcare needs of uninsured Atlanta residents, who would have spent less than a quarter of this cash if they had health insurance.

They say figures speak for themselves, and as you have seen above, the figures have spoken. So if you care about yourself and your family and about America, go in for a health insurance plan immediately (if you haven't bought one already!). In the long run its much cheaper.
