Health insurance should cover the whole body. Healthcare in America is a business and the cost of being seen regularly is out of control.
*Health insurance
-mental health
*Vision care
*Dental care
All the above are vital to a person but the latter 2 are treated as luxuries despite there being direct correlations with them aiding in overall health.
i.e. the connection of oral health to heart health
Additionally we recognize that there is a mental health crisis but most policies either don’t cover therapy or cover very little. Simple math- if a person needs to go to therapy/counseling twice a week and the cost is $60/hr x4 weeks in a month that’s MINIMUM $480 a month out of pocket. Healthy minds have healthy bodies and we need to focus on the wellbeing of our citizens.
