Welcome! Join a Bargaining for Our Lives
group on facebook and Twitter.
Bargaining for Our Lives is an essential read for every American, especially now as our economy struggles to right itself, unemployment is rampant, tens of millions of Americans are already without health insurance and Obama's regime has just passed the most significant healthcare bill this country has ever seen into law.
With this book author Jennifer Heyns strives to empower readers to stand up and take responsibility for their own healthcare, whether covered by an HMO or on the self-pay plan (uninsured). The key to our nation's healthcare issues does not lie with health insurance or Obama's grand plan but with more individual involvement and accountability. In
Bargaining for Our Lives anyone can learn how to navigate the world of healthcare properly: find quality healthcare professionals, negotiate costs, research diagnoses, alternative treatment options and medications and become your own healthcare watch dog.
After navigating the world of healthcare without the aid or hindrance of an HMO for eight years, Jennifer gained a firm grasp on how the medical profession works as well as determining some of the facets of health insurance that don't work. By taking nothing for granted and questioning every aspect of her family's healthcare she has been able to successfully educate herself on healthcare and become much more responsible and accountable with respect to her family's well being.
The book is written in a personal style and readers say it's like sitting down to a friendly
conversation one-on-one with the author as she shares her experiences in rolling up her sleeves
and delving into the world of healthcare without that safety net of health insurance that so many
people count on and so many others have never had the luxury of.
Bargaining for Our Lives is educational, lively, timely and essential and teaches many things
but first and foremost that healthcare and health insurance are NOT the same thing. While health
insurance companies are set up to make money, healthcare is how you go about attaining wellness.
There is a vast difference and although insurance companies can, at times, help people attain
wellness by absorbing some of the costs, they can also be a source of confusion, frustration and
exert a certain aspect of control over their customer's lives. The goal of this book is to put the power
back into the hands of every American, who by arming themselves with knowledge of the world of
healthcare and becoming a more involved, accountable and responsible participant, can evoke change
for the betterment of their own lives, the lives of their family and bring about the reform this country
really needs.
