National Healthcare Debate Ends Ends in Time for Super Tuesday; a Revolution in Health Insurance Plan Debuts in Georgia

Tampa, FL, January 31, 2008 --(PR.com)-- More than 10 years have passed since healthcare was the center of political debate. Since then, nothing much has happened (unless you consider an 87% increase in health insurance premiums over the last seven years nothing much).

Presidential candidates are talking about healthcare again, but “Talking Points; Talking Heads; Talking Trash…we’ve heard enough Talk,” said Mitchell Bodden, president of Good Health Associates. “Talk has been replaced by The Walk.”

After two years of product development, Good Health Associates has introduced a revolutionary health insurance program to help business owners, employees and their families control care cost. More importantly, the plan will provide better access to the healthcare system, and will dramatically change how healthcare is bought, sold, financed and accessed for years to come in Georgia.

The new Covenant plan was unveiled at a luncheon with The Honorable Roy C. Barnes, former Governor of Georgia presiding. “The health of Georgia's citizens is one of the most critical issues confronting us,” Barnes said. “We have no choice but to find a solution for so many uninsured and underinsured Georgians.”

“Business owners, those with 25 or more employees, have been following all the rules and the mandates thrust upon them over the years,” Bodden said, “but the results were always the same: higher costs. The only way out was to drop their health insurance plans – which only exacerbates the uninsured problems we’re facing. Our Covenant will go a long way toward fixing our problems – the national debate can carry on as always.”

Good Health Associates organized all the players to get this program on the streets: Insurance Companies, Healthcare Providers, Business Leaders and the Government. Not only will Bodden’s effort change the way healthcare is delivered in Georgia, but the rest of the country as well. Covenant will be introduced in several new states in 2008.

“We cannot afford to spend another day, another decade debating the course of healthcare in our country. We’re putting Words into Action,” Bodden said.
