The race for the presidential nominations is in full swing. On February 5, the so-called "Super Tuesday" primaries will have a major influence on the outcome for both parties. Since health care is one of the biggest issues among voters, we took a look at each of the leading candidates' stance on health insurance. All agree that health reforms are necessary, but their proposals differ greatly, especially across party lines. So which candidate's plans will be best for you?
Blue Cross Blue Shield Association has put together a detailed comparison chart on the health care proposals of both parties' presidential hopefuls:
Democratic Presidential Candidates Health Care Reforms (PDF: 103.37 kb)
Republican Presidential Candidates Health Care Reforms (PDF: 77.87 kb)
The San Francisco Chronicle has also put together a Voter Guide providing an overview of each candidate's plans for health insurance.
We hope you will find these links useful. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions on health insurance or how your current policy may be affected by any of the proposed reforms.
