house of representativesThis past November the United States House of Representatives passed a health care bill which will affect Americans and the way they take care of their health. This new bill is of great concern to Daniel Touizer, CEO of Cinergy Health who expressed his opinion about this new legislation in the following way:

“While the house healthcare bill is far from perfect, it is at least a step towards expanding access to affordable health coverage for all Americans. Unfortunately, the House healthcare bill is radically off the mark from what meaningful health reform needs to address. While it contains elements of an effective healthcare reform bill such as emphasis on prevention and healthcare affordability, it fails to tackle the roots of rising healthcare costs.”

Continuing his assessment of this new development in healthcare legislation, Daniel Touizer expressed hope that this is just the beginning of a process to improve the general health of the U.S. population through healthier living and more intelligent health choices.

Daniel Touizer hopes to also see a larger emphasis, not only on healthier lifestyles at home and at work, but also more freedom which allows people to purchase health insurance beyond their state lines, lowering prices of prescription drugs and reducing the costs of hospital-based care.
