We’ve been neglecting the importance of health insurance, especially for the poor families, and ultimately giving way to more burden on society and economy. If a poor family moves on without health insurance and poor health condition of a family member asks for long and expensive medical treatment then the whole family may have to pass through the holocaust of financial crisis. That is the reason why experts stress upon the need of health insurance and giving way to the same view, Al Rohling avers, ‘Health care for children really is a bridge to get out of poverty.’
However, it is quite unfortunate that in the recent years the number of people came under the reel of health insurance has decreased startlingly. As we know that children with health insurance are normally taken to have proper medication no sooner they show symptoms of bad health and all this happens because health insurance handle all their medical expenses. On the other end, parents of those kids who move on without health insurance usually recoil from taking their kids to the hospitals, as they know how much money it may require.
The main message is that health insurance has become the dire need in the present time, as we know that the cost of health care services is shooting higher and higher, which is making it quite difficult for poor people to keep pace with the modern living and survival.
