Bernie Sanders threw Joe Biden a lifeline on health care this week. K Street is now trying to cut it away. A deep-pocketed health care coalition has launched an assault on the public option during the Democratic National Convention, previewing the intense level of industry opposition Biden's health plan will face if he's elected president. A new six-figure ad campaign from the Partnership for America’s Health Care Future — a group consisting of hospital, insurance and pharma lobbying heavyweights — decries the public option as an expensive quagmire that would undermine private health insurance. The campaign is a reminder that the public option, though more moderate than Sanders’ sweeping “...

Group Insurance Group insurance is insurance coverage of a group under one master contract. The most common types of group insurance are life and health insurance, both of which can be given as a tax-free benefit to employees.

As an independent professional, cutting ties with the constraints of a corporate workplace can also mean losing some of the perks—including health insurance benefits that many employers offer. However, this factor seems to be outweighed by the many benefits of going independent. Eighty-two percent of full-time independents say they are happier working on their own and 69 percent say it is better for their health. As a group, independents believe it is no more or less risky to leave all your employment eggs in the employer’s basket than to spread them across several clients or to protect them in their independent nest, even without the benefits provided by traditional employment. And, there...

Group health insurance | group b health b insurance | farmers insurance group | group insurance According to Wikipedia, Group insurance is an insurance that covers a group of people, usually who are the employees of a common employer or professionals in a common group. Group coverage can help reduce the problem of adverse selection by creating a pool of people eligible to purchase insurance who belong to the group for reasons other than for the purposes of obtaining insurance. In other words, people belong to the group not because they possess some high risk factor which makes them more apt to purchase insurance (thus increasing adverse selection); instead they are in the group for reasons...

Group insurance is offered in every country in which private insurance...
