About 'national healthcare'|Guest Post: National Healthcare Decisions Day








One               of               Barack               Obama's               major               plans               after               he               takes               office               after               his               inauguration               on               January               20,               2009               is               to               overhaul               the               nation's               healthcare               systems.

He               is               about               to               inherit               what               Health               and               Hospitals               Secretary               Alan               Levine               calls               the               "Four               Horsement               of               the               Health               Care               Apocalypse."               Each               State               has               its               unique               health               care               model;               some               have               had               functional               ones               for               many               years,               such               as               Hawaii,               which               Hillary               Clinton               talked               about               as               the               type               of               system               she               believed               could               serve               as               a               prototype               for               the               rest               of               the               nation.

Many               States,               however,               are               in               the               midst               of               a               serious               healthcare               crisis               and               are               having               to               rethink               and               restructure               their               programs.

Those               without               jobs,               who               are               totally               disabled               and               without               any               income,               can               qualify               for               Medicare               or               Medicaid.

It               is               the               working               poor,               however,               who               suffer               substantially               because               incomes               are               often               so               little               that               they               are               unable               to               afford               even               the               smallest               payment               for               medical               care               and               go               on               without               until               there               is               a               crisis,               at               which               time               they               end               up               in               the               emergency               section               of               a               hospital.
               Louisiana               is               particularly               in               an               emergency.

Governor               Bobby               Jindal               was               elected               in               2007               with               the               hope               of               the               citizenry               of               the               State               that               he               would               eliminate               the               waste               and               corruption               that               for               so               long               has               been               identified               with               Louisiana.

2008               was               spent               eliminating               unnecessary               projects               and               placing               oversight               mechanisms               into               the               political               system               to               help               overcome               the               powerbrokers               who               used               connections               and               family               names               to               maintain               control               over               government               offices               and               corporations.

Nowhere               had               that               been               more               obvious               than               in               the               actual               government               of               Louisiana,               according               to               the               political               pundits,               so               Bobby               Jindal's               goal               was               to               root               out               corruption               at               every               level.

In               2009               he               is               poised               to               overhaul               the               healthcare               system               with               a               medical               home               model               where               all               care,               including               physical,               mental               and               dental,               will               be               part               of               a               one               stop               shop,               where               the               working               poor               can               receive               health               care               without               charge               under               Medicaid.

But               how               can               this               be               done               with               funding               gaps,               disallowed               reimbursements               from               the               Federal               government               that               the               state               is               required               to               pay               back,               and               shortfalls               while               public               healthcare               costs               have               skyrocketed?

These               concerns               are               critical               as               well               as               physician               complaints               about               managed               care               that               they               believe               will               negatively               impact               patient               care               and               the               financial               underpinnings               of               the               system.
               In               Natchitoches,               Louisiana               the               Outreach               Medical               Center               is               funded               by               Medicaid,               Medicare,               private               insurance               and               federal               funds.

40%               of               the               population               served               by               the               Center               is               working               poor.

The               goal               is               to               have               a               community               health               center               in               every               parish               in               the               state               of               Louisiana.

The               State               of               Louisiana               gave               the               Louisiana               Primary               Care               Association,               $41.5               million.

Through               new               market               tax               credits               the               health               centers               are               taking               this               to               banks               and               lenders               who               participate               in               new               tax               credits               and               hope               to               parlay               that               money               into               three               times               that               41.5               million.

They               intend               to               borrow               additional               funds               using               the               $41.5               million               as               collateral               to               expand               centers               and               services.

This               will               help               consolidate               medical               care               and               costs               while               allowing               the               centers               to               have               a               portion               of               the               Federal               loan               forgiven               because               of               a               tax               credit               provision               that               after               seven               years,               if               the               money               is               used               for               expansion,               it               will               be               forgiven.

This               money               will               be               used               to               expand               health               care               for               the               working               poor               because               public               health               care               is               projected               to               occupy               21%               of               the               healthcare               service               budget.

Through               an               organization               called               Capital               Links               the               Louisiana               Primary               Care               Association               anticipates               getting               the               project               organized,               developed               and               in               operation.

Bobby               Jindal               supports               the               project               because               of               the               serious               costs               facing               the               State               budget.

John               Winston,               Chief               Executive               Officer               of               Outreach               Medical               Center               that               serves               three               population               areas               in               Louisiana,               is               optimistic               that               the               plan               will               be               effective.
