13 PRICES FOR SERVICES ALL Providers shall POST their PRICES for the SERVICES they can provide, and in addition provide a printed price list to the customer at the time of receiving service(s) These will be the prices approved by NHC These are, also, the prices that the co-pay(s) will apply to. The provider may treat more than one problem, if there are more than one, at an appointment Medicare currently does NOT permit this.. MORE APPOINTMENMTS

14 PRICES FOR SERVICES WE ARE CUSTOMERS… When we buy a loaf of bread or a gallon of gasoline, we know the price before we make the purchase Like wise the provider will, also, know and will make an invoice for only one price.

17 LETS DANCE

18 TORT REFORM TORT REFORM IS WHAT CONGRESS, And the LOBBYISTS HAVE BEEN DANCING AROUND FOR YEARS AND STILL HAVE NOT ADDRESSED WHY?

19 TORT REFORM A tort is a Legal Wrong Malpractice law suits costs Health Care in US between $100 and $178 Billion per year Less than 2% of patients who are negligently injured file a lawsuit Of lawsuits filed, ONE OF EVERY THREE DOES NOT INVOLVE ANY MEDICAL ERROR If a lawsuit is filed, almost 1 in 6 victims receive NO compensation 1 in 10 meritless lawsuits result in a compensation award

20 TORT REFORM - THIS PLAN Provides for attorneys to file two types of lawsuits One with a cap on an award of $250,000 The other has NO cap on an award If a court finds that there was no malpractice, the attorney filing the lawsuit shall pay the defendants: 5 times the costs of the defendants and their attorneys under the first option 15 times the costs under the second option 25 times the costs, if a jury determines that the lawsuit was harassment

21 TORT REFORM THIS PLAN This Plan protects the right of any one injured to seek compensation At the same time it discourages filing just to be filing for dollars Attorneys need to make sure they have all of THEIR DUCKS IN ORDER, and then look again to make sure THEY ARE ALL DUCKS, before they file a lawsuit.

22 UNNECESSARY TESTS IT HAS BEEN ESTIMATED THAT UNNECESSARY TESTS COSTS THE ECONOMY $210 BILLION PER YEAR TORT REFORM WILL ASSIST IN REDUCING THIS THE PLAN ALSO HAS A PROVISION FOR COORDINATORS TO TRACK THE REFERRAL OF PATIENTS IF A GROUP OF PROVIDERS SHOWS A HISTORY OF REFERING TO EACH OTHER THEY WILL BE REFERRED TO THE STATE BOARD OF REGISTRATION OF DOCTORS

23 DRUG COMPANIES Drug companies shall sell their products IN the UNITED STATES for the SAME PRICES they sell the products OUTSIDE the U.S. Consumers may purchase drugs from OUTSIDE the U.S. Drug Manufacturers shall not attempt to, or actually pay a generic manufacturer not to enter the market, so the Drug Manufacturers can preserve their monopolies

24 GENERIC DRUGS SEVEN OUT OF TEN PRESCRIPTIONS WRITTEN ARE GENERIC

25 GENERIC DRUGS All generic drugs shall be purchased and paid for by the customer Except for customers with incomes Of $5,000, per year or less They will pay nothing – PLAN WILL At four dollar generics, the cost to bill the Plan would probably be equal to the $4 cost of the generic

26 BRAND NAME DRUGS … The customer will pay a percent of the price (CO-PAY) and the Plan will pay the balance A customer may purchase a Brand Name instead of the generic, but will pay the FULL Brand Name Price. The plan will NOT pay for it

27 PAID OUT OF POCKET The following shall be paid out of pocket, as GENERIC DRUGS ARE: 1.Contraceptives/Birth Control – EXCEPT any BIRTH CONTROL methodology available shall be paid for by the PLAN, if the Mother’s Life may be threatened by a PREGNANCY 2.Viagra, Cialis or other drugs or methodology of this type
