Ken Krawchuk on Health Care

 

 


Health Share organizations. voluntarily pool resources

Q: How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?

A: Federal over-regulation has all but destroyed the possibility of affordable health care, and any meaningful remedy must originate at the federal level. However, there is one affordable option still open to Pennsylvanians: Health Share organizations. They're not insurance, but rather voluntary groups of individuals who pool resources to pay each other's medical expenses. The typical fair share cost for members is a fraction of the cost of regular insurance, typically 20%-25% of the premium for an Obamacare policy. Unfortunately, some Health Share organizations are not permitted to operate in Pennsylvania. As governor, I would work to further open up this inexpensive alternative and attempt to limit federal meddling.

Oppose ObamaCare

Q: Do you support or oppose the statement, "Expand ObamaCare"?

A: Oppose. Obamacare quadrupled my medical insurance premium in two years while dramatically reducing my choices. (Not a state issue)
