#Preserve #Protect #Maintain
Our Australian Healthcare System’s core Value is to deliver Quality Patient-Centric Care – regardless of one’s wealth. Where the medical need of the patient is put ahead of profits and the delivery of care is according to the OECD one of the best in the world. So why allow Honeysuckle Cigna NIB the opportunity to model after a system that is retrograde? To protect Insurance Companies’ bottom line, keep their Share Holders happy and increase and improve Profits – Essentially making healthcare profit-centric
In managed care the type and delivery of healthcare is managed by the insurance company – rather than just financing healthcare they become the 3rd wheel in the patient-doctor relationship. Where patient privacy diminishes and the patient’s level of cover dictates the type of treatment and the quality of care a patient receives.
Now more than ever it is important we regulate, legislate and mitigate against profit centric US Style Managed Healthcare. We must work together and take action before Honeysuckle Cigna NIB does permanently change the landscape of the Australian Healthcare System.
Take a few minutes to write to your Local Federal MP here and let those who have power to legislate hear your collective voices.
