If you go out on Workman Comp can your employer cancel your health insurance?

My ex was off on workman comp for several months. While he was off his employer cancelled his and our Kids Health Insurance, and told him he could do Cobra. They are also telling him he can not get his insurance restarted back until the next enrollment period after he comes back to work which is almost a year away. This does not sound right to me.

It’s not up to the employer – it’s IRS regulations.

Yes. If they aren’t actively on the payroll, they MUST be dropped from the group insurance, and offered COBRA.

HOWEVER, I think they’re wrong about not restarting you again until open enrollment – starting back up again is a qualifying event.

Health Insurance Is a Family Matter $3.95 Health Insurance is a Family Matter is the third of a series of six reports on the problems of uninsurance in the United Sates and addresses the impact on the family of not having health insurance. The book demonstrates that having one or more uninsured members in a family can have adverse consequences for everyone in the household and that the financial, physical, and emotional well-being of all members of a family may be adversely affected if any family member lacks coverage. It concludes with the finding that uninsured children have worse access to and use fewer health care services than children with insurance, including important preventive services that can have beneficial long-term effects.

Cover Me: A Health Insurance Memoir $3.95 Growing up in middle-class middle America, Sonya Huber viewed health care as did most of her peers: as an inconvenience or not at all. There were braces and cavities, medications and stitches, the family doctor and the local dentist. Finding herself without health insurance after college graduation, she didn’t worry. It was a temporary problem. Thirteen years and twenty-three jobs later, her view of the matter was quite different. Huber’s irreverent and affecting memoir of navigating the nation’s health-care system brings an awful and necessary dose of reality to the political debates and propaganda surrounding health-care reform. "I look like any other upwardly mobile hipster," Huber says. "I carry a messenger bag, a few master’s degrees, and a toddler raised on organic milk." What’s not evident, however, is that she is a veteran of Medicaid and WIC, the federal government’s supplemental nutrition program for women, infants, and children. In "Cover Me," Huber tells a story that is at once all too familiar and rarely told: of being pushed to the edge by worry; of the adamant belief that better care was out there; of taking one mind-numbing job after another in pursuit of health insurance, only to find herself scrounging through the trash heap of our nation’s health-care system for tips and tricks that might mean the difference between life and death.

Free for All?: Lessons from the Rand Health Insurance Experiment $47.38 From 1971 to 1982, researchers at the RAND Corporation devised an experiment to address two key questions in health care financing: how much more medical care will people use if it is provided free of charge? and what are the consequences for their health? This book presents a comprehensive account of the experiment and its findings. It will be an invaluable teaching tool and reference for anyone concerned with health-care policy.

Universal Coverage: The Elusive Quest for National Health Insurance $3.45 Universal health coverage has become the Mount Everest of public policy in the United States: the most daunting challenge on the political landscape. But, despite numerous attempts, all efforts to achieve universal health care have failed. In Universal Coverage, Rick Mayes examines the peculiar and persistent lack of universal health coverage in America, its economic and political origins dating back to the 1930s, and the current consequences of this significant problem. "Accessible, cleverly argued, and provocative. Mayes provides fresh answers to the enduring question of why the U.S. lacks national health insurance." —Jonathan Oberlander, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, Author of The Political Life of Medicare "Aaron Wildavsky said good policy studies should use policy as a window on politics. Mayes does it brilliantly." — Deborah Stone, Dartmouth College "A readable and accessible account that is informed by previous scholarship yet backed up by telling details from historical archives." — Jacob Hacker, Yale University "This book makes a genuine contribution to the literatures on political institutions and interest groups." — Kevin Esterling, University of California, Riverside "Mayes is highly knowledgeable about health policy and his writing is clear and spirited." — Martha Derthick, University of Virginia Rick Mayes is an Assistant Professor of Public Policy in the University of Richmond’s Department of Political Science and a Faculty Research Fellow at the University of California, Berkeley’s Petris Center on Healthcare Markets and Consumer Welfare.

The Healthcare Fix: Universal Insurance for All Americans $3.95 The shocking statistic is that forty-seven million Americans have no health insurance. When uninsured Americans go to the emergency room for treatment, however, they do receive care–and a bill. Many hospitals now require uninsured patients to put their treatment on a credit card–which can saddle a low-income household with unpayably high balances that can lead to personal bankruptcy. Why don’t these people just buy health insurance? Because the cost of coverage that doesn’t come through an employer is more than many low- and middle-income households make in a year. Meanwhile, rising healthcare costs for employees are driving many businesses under. As for government-supplied health care, ever higher costs and added benefits (for example, Part D, Medicare’s new prescription drug coverage) make both Medicare and Medicaid impossible to sustain fiscally; benefits grow faster than the national per-capita income. It’s obvious the system is broken. What can we do? In "The Healthcare Fix, " economist Laurence Kotlikoff proposes a simple, straightforward approach to the problem that would create one system that works for everyone–and secure America’s fiscal and economic future. Kotlikoff’s proposed Medical Security System is not the "socialized medicine" so feared by Republicans and libertarians; it’s a plan for universal health insurance. Because everyone would be insured, it’s also a plan for universal healthcare. Participants–including all who are currently uninsured, all Medicaid and Medicare recipients, and all with private or employer-supplied insurance–would receive annual vouchers for health insurance, the amount of which would be based on their current medical condition. Insurance companies would willingly accept people with health problems because their vouchers would be higher. And the government could control costs by establishing the values of the vouchers so that benefit growth no longer outstrips growth of the nation’s per capita income. It’s a "single-payer" plan–but a single payer for insurance. The American healthcare industry would remain competitive, innovative, strong, and private. Kotlikoff’s plan is strong medicine for America’s healthcare crisis, but brilliant in its simplicity. Its provisions can fit on a postcard–and Kotlikoff provides one, ready to be copied and mailed to your representative in Congress. We’re electing a new president in 2008; let’s choose a new healthcare system, too–one that works.

Health Care Financing and Insurance $94.99 Health Care Financing and Insurance. Options for Design

The Theory of Demand for Health Insurance $4.42 Why do people buy health insurance? Conventional theory holds that people purchase insurance because they prefer the certainty of paying a small premium to the risk of getting sick and paying a large medical bill. Conventional theory also holds that any additional health care that consumers purchase because they have insurance is not worth the cost of producing it. Therefore, economists have promoted policies–copayments and managed care–to reduce consumption of this additional, seemingly low-value care. This book presents a new theory of consumer demand for health insurance. It holds that people purchase insurance to obtain additional income when they become ill. In effect, insurance companies act to transfer insurance premiums from those who remain healthy to those who become ill. This additional income generates purchases of additional high-value care, often allowing sick persons to obtain life-saving care that they could not otherwise afford. Regarding risk, the new theory relies on empirical studies showing that consumers actually prefer the risk of a large loss to incurring a smaller loss with certainty. Therefore, if consumers purchase insurance, it is not because they desire to avoid risk. Instead, the new theory suggests consumers simply pay a premium when healthy in exchange for a claim on additional income (effected when insurance pays for the medical care) if they become ill. Health insurance is substantially more valuable to the consumer under the new theory. The new theory moreover implies that copayments and managed care–central health policies of the last 30 years–were directed at solving problems that largely did not exist. Because these policies either reduced the amount of income transferred to ill persons or limited access to valuable health care, they may have done more harm than good. The new theory also provides a solid theoretical justification for insuring the uninsured and for implementing national health insurance.

Understanding Health Insurance, 6e $3.46 Understanding Health Insurance is a unique product because it provides step-by-step instructions as to the completion of the HCFA-1500 insurance claim form. An easy to understand book, it contains a number of case studies that are used to provide insurance claims completion practice. This practice is accomplished manually, through completion of paper claims, and electronically, through use of a CD-ROM that accompanies the textbook. — A step-by step approach to claims form completion is taken in the textbook, as it "walks" users through the confusing task of completing insurance claims forms. — Each insurance chapter contains case studies for the purpose of guiding the user through the completion process; chapters contain numerous coding scenarios for practice, and the appendices and CD-ROM contain additional case studies for practice in claim form completion. — The CD-ROM provides an opportunity for practice in electronic data entry for claims processing purposes. A unique feature of the disk is the three methods by which claims can be entered-blank form mode (just like a provider’s office), self study mode (feedback is provided as data is entered), and test mode (a beneficial feature for educators who will use the cases as quizzes and examinations during class-feedback is provided at the end of data entry of a case).

The Theory of Social Health Insurance $86.55 The Theory of Social Health Insurance develops the theory of social health insurance also known as public health insurance. While a good deal is known about the demand and supply of private insurance, the theoretical basis of social health insurance is much more fragile. The Theory of Social Health Insurance examines questions including why does social health insurance exist and even dominate private health insurance in most developed countries? What are the objectives and constraints of social health insurance managers? What is the likely outcome or "performance" of social health insurance? The Theory of Social Health Insurance reviews the conventional theory of demand for insurance and health insurance, the supply of health insurance in general and social health insurance in particular, the properties of the optimal health insurance contract, and whether there are factors limiting the growth of social health insurance.

"Dr. John Geyman’s "Falling Through the Safety Net "provides a brilliant road map to this nation’s patchwork of medical coverage for the uninsured. As a practitioner, teacher, and medical leader, Geyman has learned his way around the safety net first hand. Powerful reading for all."-Fitzhugh Mullan, MD, author, "Big Doctoring in America: Profiles in Primary Care." "Once again, the legendary master of family medicine -addresses with clinical compassion the widespread concerns about "unsurance" and uncovered medical costs."-Donald Light, Professor of comparative health care -systems, Princeton University To those who would take the Alfred E. Newman stance toward health insurance (What me worry, I’m healthy ), Geyman delivers some sobering statistics: Eighty percent of the uninsured live in working families; Sixty-seven million Americans are uninsured for at least one month in a twenty-eight month period; One in five workers cannot afford insurance when offered by employers; Even in families with two full-time wage earners, ten percent are uninsured. Those who lack insurance face poor health care and increased risk of bad outcomes. The answer, argues Dr. Geyman, is one the majority of Americans already want: single payer health insurance. This is the book for those who no longer want this problem to be as American as apple pie. John Geyman, M.D., is professor emeritus of Family -Medicine at the University of Washington, and editor of the "Journal of the American Board of Family Practice."

One Nation, Uninsured: Why the U.S. Has No National Health Insurance $35.08 Every industrial nation in the world guarantees its citizens access to essential health care services–every country, that is, except the United States. In fact, one in eight Americans–a shocking 43 million people–do not have any health care insurance at all. One Nation, Uninsured offers a vividly written history of America’s failed efforts to address the health care needs of its citizens. Covering the entire twentieth century, Jill Quadagno shows how each attempt to enact national health insurance was met with fierce attacks by powerful stakeholders, who mobilized their considerable resources to keep the financing of health care out of the government’s hands. Quadagno describes how at first physicians led the anti-reform coalition, fearful that government entry would mean government control of the lucrative private health care market. Doctors lobbied legislators, influenced elections by giving large campaign contributions to sympathetic candidates, and organized "grassroots" protests, conspiring with other like-minded groups to defeat reform efforts. As the success of Medicare and Medicaid in the mid-century led physicians and the AMA to start scaling back their attacks, the insurance industry began assuming a leading role against reform that continues to this day. One Nation, Uninsured offers a sweeping history of the battles over health care. It is an invaluable read for anyone who has a stake in the future of America’s health care system.

Strengthening Community: Social Insurance in a Diverse America $6.96 This new volume from the National Academy of Social Insurance raises a provocative question that goes to the heart of discussion about social insurance and diversityto what extent must social insurance programs address historical, social, and economic inequities? The contributors explore issues of equity and diversity in social insurance programs in America today. Some argue that differences in the treatment of racial and ethnic minorities have contributed to contemporary gaps that span an array of socioeconomic indicators, including education, wealth, life expectancy, and health status. These indicators are central to the administration of social insurance programs because they help determine not only the type and amount of benefits distributed but also whether benefits are received at all.

Do Not Resuscitate: Why the Health Insurance Industry Is Dying, and How We Must Replace It $3.95 "Geyman’s literary voice arises from his unusual professional and political trajectories: from country doctor to academic department chair and prominent journal editor, and from longtime Republican to president of Physicians for a National Health Program . . . a passionate advocate and scholar."–The New England Journal of Medicine "The raging debate over how to pay for health insurance has missed a profoundly important fact: As big as it is, as tight of a grip it has on American life, the health insurance industry is dying," states John Geyman, MD, in Do Not Resuscitate: Why the Health Insurance Industry is Dying, and How We Must Replace It. Written for lay readers, health care professionals, and policymakers alike, Do Not Resuscitate moves beyond books that decry our current problems to reveal what the trend for more than half a century of increasing costs and decreasing coverage really means. The situation for doctors, patients, caregivers, and even the insured will move from dysfunctional to a complete breakdown over the next decade. In one of many examples Geyman cites, as employers cut costs in a global economy, the cost of health insurance as a proportion of wages is rising to the point where it will consume all average household income by 2025. John Geyman is professor emeritus of family medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle, Washington. He is the author of The Corrosion of Medicine: Can the Profession Reclaim its Moral Legacy?, Falling Through the Safety Net: Americans Without Health Insurance, and Shredding the Social Contract: The Privatization of Medicare.

The Impact of Health Insurance in Low- And Middle-Income Countries $26.94 Over the past twenty years, many low- and middle- income countries have experimented with health insurance options. While their plans have varied widely in scale and ambition, their goals are the same: to make health services more affordable through the use of public subsidies while also moving care providers partially or fully into competitive markets. Until now, however, we have known little about the actual effects of these policy changes. Understanding the impact of health insurance-based care is key to the public policy debate of whether to extend insurance to low-income populations and if so, how to do it or to serve them through other means. Using recent household data, this new book assesses the impact of insurance programs in China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ghana, Indonesia, Namibia, and Peru. These nations are betting that insurance-based health care financing can increase the accessibility of services, improve providers’ productivity, and change the population’s health care use patterns, mirroring the development of health systems in most OECD countries. The contributors also discuss potential design improvements that could increase impact. They provide insights on how to evaluate health insurance reforms using existing data and contribute to a robust knowledge base to guide policy as other countries tackle the health insurance challenge.

Health Benefits at Work: An Economic and Political Analysis of Employment-Based Health Insurance $7.23 The majority of Americans receive their health insurance for themselves and their families through their job. The employee pays a portion of the premium but the employer chooses the type and amount of coverage offered as well as administers the plan. This book addresses the question: Who really pays for employer-arranged health insurance? Are premiums paid from company profits or do employees bear the cost through lower wages? Pauly suggests that this confusion has complicated the debate on public policy and needs to be alleviated. This work first shows how views taken by business and political leaders during the Clinton health reform proposal debate were affected by this confusion and did not follow the economic view. It then provides a novel, intuitive, but comprehensive outline of the economic theory that bears on this question. Empirical evidence consistent with the economic view is summarized, and the implications of the view for some important issues in health policy and in practical health benefits management are discussed in detail. "Health Benefits at Work" explores the political economy of health policy when the stakeholders have an uncertain and possibly incorrect understanding of their actual interests. For the benefits specialist, it provides an accessible treatment of the complex and often counterintuitive economics of health benefits. This will appeal to the health policy community as well as economists and anyone concerned with issues surrounding health insurance in employment settings. "This book is refreshing . . . clean and intuitive; the logic devastating." –Michael A. Morrissey Mark V. Pauly is Professor of Health Care Systems and Insurance and RiskManagement, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania.

Health Care for Us All adopts these five objectives and applies an efficiency filter to identify the virtually unique framework that meets all objectives. Impediments to achieving Americans’ goals can be summarized under the rubrics of too little insurance, too little income, and too little properly functioning market. The efficient remedy for each is the subject of the book. Related philosophical as well as economic issues, such as why there should be government involvement in health care, are analyzed.
