Congressman Joe Baca: Free preventative care provisions will soon go into effect



www.house.gov/baca/

Dear Friend,

I am pleased to share with you new provisions of health care reform that will make preventive care more accessible and affordable. These new regulations, authorized by the Affordable Care Act, require new health plans to cover preventive services at no cost to the patient. Americans currently use preventive services at only half of the recommended rate because of their prohibitive costs.

Comprehensive preventive care can save billions of dollars and thousands of lives. According to statistics from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), seven in ten deaths in America result from chronic and often preventable diseases. HHS data also shows that 69 million workers report missed days due to illness each year, which reduces economic output in this country by $260 billion per year. I believe we must do better, and this historic health reform legislation will keep many Americans, especially Inland residents, healthier and save our nation money in the long run.

REPEALING ANTITRUST EXEMPTIONS FOR HEALTH INSURERS Dear Friend: Last week, I joined my colleagues in a bipartisan effort in the House of Representatives to support legislation that will create greater competition in the health insurance market, and end the unfair antitrust advantage that health insurers have relied on to exorbitantly raise premium rates.  H.R. 4626, the Health Insurance Industry Fair Competition Act, was approved by the House with a 406 to 19 vote. The passage of this legislation is an important victory for hard working American families.  For too long the health insurance industry has been allowed to play by a different set of rules.  By repealing the blanket antitrust exemption given to insurance companies, this bill restores competition and transparency to the health market.

Pamela Zander: Campaign to Replace Joe Baca

Good Afternoon,

I am running for the 43rd Dist. (Baca’s Seat) and would love to get your support.

As a strong Republican, I believe our Constitutional Principles, are being threatened by the factions of a Socialist mind and trying to bring balance to a divided House is difficult; however, with conviction of values fixed deep within my soul, I have been “on a mission”, to exalt this position, as set forth by the Oath everyone takes when signing in for the Office.

Why am I interested in such an office, you might ask?

1. The convergence of interest and morality, has brought an enormous disadvantage to Congress, as our Economic Infrastructure wanes in the balance of a once, wealthy nation.

2. The moral and virtuous framework of our freedoms with respect to liberty, justice and the over-all respect of property seems to be by the demand of the current administration and not by the Bill of Rights, Constitution, and the Declaration of Independence.

3. I would like to implement the ethical traditions of our Constitution, which once was the driving force of “EXCELLENCE” in the US. Read more…
