What exactly does Congress have to do to get Health Security America functional?
• Congress will have to set the minimum level of income for individuals and families for the government to pay their premiums to Health Security America. The minimum income may or may not be the same as eligibility is for Medicaid now. Congress will also have to oversee the transfer of monies collected from the elderly (formerly collected for Medicare) are transferred to pay the premiums of HSA. • Congress will have to form the quasi-corporation as designed in the book Health Security America: Fixing the health care crisis. The new corporation’s by-laws will make sure none of its eight key rules are violated. • Congress will fund the money for start up of this health plan. This money will be paid back over time from premiums as described in the book.
