With that in mind: One provision of PPACA will allow for a rate up for tobacco users by as much as 50 percent. As part of PPACA's wellness provisions, tobacco cessation programs are provided at no cost. I would think this should encourage as many as possible to rethink smoking and chewing. All one needs beyond that is to just say "YES" to quitting.
At $5.00 a pack for cigarettes you could save over $1,800 in one year. Why not take that one step further and take that money saved on tobacco and invest in a gym membership?
We all have a personal stake in the new frontier in health insurance.

ReplyDeleteNice blog. Concise and to the point. I like the idea of one small idea that can be implemented today. This "Obama Care" problem we are facing will have to be dealt with, in increments. Now is the best time to start doing what we can to protect ourselves against the ever rising cost of our "free" health care. Thanks for the insights. I will be looking forward to reading more from you.
