Leading Provider of Affordable Health Insurance Urges Legislation to Focus on
Rising Healthcare Costs and Taxation
AVENTURA, Fla.,  March 22  /PRNewswire/ --  Cinergy Health, a nationwide
provider of  health insurance  benefit programs for the consumer market,
expressed its concern for the house healthcare bill that passed  Sunday, March
21st.  

"The most meaningful and reasonable change taking place is the expansion of
Medicaid coverage for people with lower income. This segment of America has
been neglected for far too long in a country that has the means to support its
citizens" said  Steve Trattner  Chief Marketing Officer of  Cinergy Health.  

"Many of the other changes, however, circumnavigate what is needed for
managing healthcare costs, and instead focus on artificial cost control
measures related to insurance programs. Consequently we will experience
significant multi-year increases in both insurance premiums and the taxes to
support reform," said Trattner.  

"The republicans put forth some innovative proposals to reign in costs, such
as the option to purchase more affordable insurance out of state, but which
were entirely disregarded by the House and the Administration," said Trattner.
 

Cinergy Health  looks forward to continuing to be a reliable national provider
of affordable  health insurance  plans and will continue to adapt to the
changes in the American healthcare system.
