Thoughtful report about the likelihood that insurance companies could still cherry-pick who they insure, despite the health care bill's proposed ban on discrimination. This article provides good factual evidence, citing a number of health care experts to identify possible loopholes that insurers might use to get around any new regulations.

The real problem is that not rejecting people for preexisting conditions is an economic impossibility unless there is only one insurance company (i.e. national health). The reasons are obvious and that this is never mentioned by the media is a symptom of a lack of critical analysis.

During a time where any article pertaining to the health care reform revolve around the happenings in the White House, this article is a breath of fresh air. It was a very interesting look into what actions the health insurance companies may do in order to continue to "cherry-pick" their customers. Altogether, I genuinely enjoyed this article. I felt that the author put a lot of time and dedication into creating it. It was well-sourced and thought provoking. I definitely agreed and understood many of his points: no matter what the White House may do, the agencies will find their own ways to drive away the sick and bring in the healthy.
