Patient Choice Coalition legislation, House Bill 1504 by Sneed & Bullard,
successfully passes both Oklahoma House and Senate; this legislation now heads
to Governor Stitt. HB1504 enables patients to assign their health insurance
benefits to the health care provider of their choice, regardless of network
status. Rather than health care providers having to "chase" payment from their
patients, health insurers will be required to make payment directly. Thank you
to Representative Sneed and Senator Bullard for all your efforts in passing this
important legislation. Click Here to Read More:

The TDI (Texas of Department of Insurance) announces new executive leadership.
You may be asking, "what is the Texas Department of Insurance, and what is their
function?" TDI regulates the state’s insurance industry, oversees the
administration of the Texas workers’ compensation system, performs the duties of
the State Fire Marshal’s Office, and provides administrative support to the
Office of Injured Employee Counsel – a separate agency. Texas Insurance Code
requires TDI to: Regulate the business of insurance in Texas. Protect and ensure
the fair treatment of consumers. Ensure fair competition in the insurance
industry to foster a competitive market. Administer the Texas’ workers’
compensation system as provided by the Texas Labor Code. Ensure that the
insurance code and other laws regarding insurance and insurance companies are
executed.

Medical Transparency has come leaps and bounds in the span of a decade. However,
there are instances where patients find themselves unsure of how much their
healthcare provider expects for payment, as well as the amount their insurance
company will cover. In this interview with KXAN, I discuss my support of Senate
Bill 2122 by Sen. Hughes of Mineola, Texas. Simply put, Senate Bill 2122
required an itemized list of healthcare charges be provided to patients prior to
the pursuit of debt collection; this is common sense legislation. Most of our
independent providers and physician-owned facilities have been providing these
itemized list for years. However, there are those within the industry that have
been reluctant or slow to provide this transparency. Click the link below to
watch (or read) the KXAN investigative story concerning medical debt.

Patient Choice is the epitome of free-market. However, health insurance has been
the least free-market in regards to affordable options. Zion Health, an
alternative to traditional health insurance, is a community of like-minded
individuals who share medical costs. If you're looking for an alternative to
costly health insurance, look no further.... *Worldwide Coverage *End-of-Life
Coverage (Funeral Expenses) *Unlimited Tele-Medicine ($0 Copay) *Prescriptions
($5 Copay) *Nearly Half the Cost of Traditional Health Insurance *Once IUA
(Member Responsibility) is Satisfied, Expenses are Paid at 100% Click the Link

Articles like this, and a brief look at SEC filings reveal that our nation's
insurers are more profitable than ever. There's nothing wrong with private
companies being profitable, but it's seemingly at the expense of someone else.
Monthly premiums continue to rise, access to network providers shrink, and
reimbursements decrease. The current healthcare economy isn't working.....

"Why are physicians made into collection agents for insurers?" Because it pits
patients against their healthcare provider(s), undermines that relationship,
while simultaneously creating a perception that health insurers provide a
valuable service and "know what's best" for their patients. Health insurance is
an ancillary industry that has taken control of our healthcare. The Patient
Provider relationship must be strengthened.
