National health reform bills would exempt Hawaii

[Devany]

If you read the article as I do (and as I think that David M does), the is exemption is only concerning the part of the bill that requires Hawaiian Employers (with a certain number of employees)to provide insurance. The rest of the bill would apply to Hawaii and I think it is an excellent bill. Especially in Hawaii we need portability of plans, more choices @ better pricing and less refusal of coverage for people. The choices we have here are poor at best unless you are young and extremely healthy. You can be denied the choice for purchasing one of the two company's policies here if you take more than one medicine or if one medicine you take has been on their list by being related to something as benign as lowering blood pressure.

Aloha au i Hawai`i,
