Why this petition matters

Started by Eric Woodroof

Let’s Correct a Law to Enable: “Fair and Competitive Insurance”!

Demand your elected officials legislate: “Fair and Competitive Insurance”… Politicians running for elections can say whether they are “for” or “against” this Policy Position:

“Fair and Competitive Insurance”:

  1. Fair and Equal Pay.
  2. Only ONE Deductible.
  3. No State-Sponsored Monopolies.

Details:

1. Fair and Equal Pay: An exam or procedure costs the same and is covered the same, whether it is performed in office, in a surgery center, or in a hospital setting. 

  • Example: Insurance companies cannot use our tax dollars to pay a hospital $400 for an exam that costs $200 down the street.  If they do, they owe Kentucky Taxpayers a $200 rebate every time they do it.

2. ONLY ONE Deductible: An exam or procedure is reimbursed the same, and counted toward your deductible the same, whether it is performed by an “in network” or “out of network” doctor.

  • No “Out of Network” deductible for government contractors (Anthem).
  • No denying clients covered benefits (like screening mammograms) even if their qualified doctor is pushed out of "Anthem's Network".
  • A government contractor must reimburse patients in full for covered benefits- in or out of network.

3. No State-Sponsored Monopolies: State employees must have the option to change insurance companies when those companies are exploiting them.

  • KY employees should not be forced to purchase over-priced products of one company.  They must have access to an open market with multiple options that bring the best quality at the most affordable price.
