Coverage of Health Care Issues in 2008 Presidential Election Unveiled by GoHealth Insurance
A New Website Focusing on the Health Care Reform Platforms of
Leading Candidates in the 2008 Presidential Primary Has Been Launched
by Online Consumer Portal GoHealth Insurance
CHICAGO--(Business Wire)--With the presidential primary elections moving into full swing
across the nation, GoHealth Insurance has announced the launch of a
new website providing an overview of the candidates' positions on
health care. Election 2008: Reforming Health Care will give undecided
voters a chance to learn more about one of the biggest issues in this
year's upcoming election.
The Election 2008 website features:
-- An overview of the health care reform debate
-- Profiles of each candidate's health care platform
-- An interactive tool to compare the candidate's views on health
care head-to-head
"There are still so many undecided voters, and health care is one
of their big issues," said Clint Jones, CEO of Norvax, Inc., the
parent company of GoHealth Insurance. "There's a lot of heated debate
right now. Our goal is to help people understand the candidate's
plans, making it easier to decide where they stand on this important
issue."
While the website contains profiles for the candidates in both
major parties, GoHealth Insurance is not endorsing any particular
candidate. "Our goal with this website is to educate voters, so they
can decide for themselves," said Jones.
Visitors to the site can use the interactive comparison tool to
see at a glance how each candidate's platform measures up against
another's. For example, visitors can easily see how Republican Mitt
Romney's health care proposal compares to Democrat Hillary Clinton's
proposal. Candidates are compared on how their proposal affects
private coverage, public programs, insurance affordability, and taxes.
The comparison tool also summarizes the candidates' overall goals for
the U.S. health care system.
Visitors who are interested in exploring their own health
insurance options can use GoHealth Insurance's online tools to browse
plans, compare leading insurance companies, connect with local agents,
and compare quotes online. GoHealth Insurance specializes in providing
quotes for individual health insurance, but also provides quotes for
group health plans and life insurance.
"We're trying to make insurance more accessible and easier to
understand. Education is a big part of that goal," said Jones.
