Aurora Health Care
Aurora Health Care is a non profit health care provider and home in Wisconsin at the Aurora St. Luke’s Medical Center. There are jobs, doctors, hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies available here. You can also communicate with your doctor or pay your bill here. You can find out much more on the Aurora Health care web site online. Aurora Health Care is listed as one of the top Wisconsin organizations whose employees have BadgerCare. BadgerCare is a state health insurance program for individuals with lower incomes and people who are in between or changing jobs. Aurora is also associated with Wal Mart and McDonald’s in Wisconsin. Aurora employees over 26,000 people and about .7% of them are receiving BadgerCare health care benefits. It is believed that these people who are receiving the BadgerCare are temporary employees or are just starting a job there or are on a part time basis. Aurora health Care provides coverage to over 37,800 people.
Many other health care companies could learn from Aurora and it would benefit the country if there were more non profit organizations like it across the country. The Federal system needs to come up with a health care reform to help every single citizen of the United States. They also need to control the outrageous charges the doctors, hospitals, and drug companies are charging individuals for their services and products. The charges have gotten out of hand and the government is just sitting there doing nothing as the medical costs continue to rise. The government officials have a good health coverage at the taxpayers expense and the taxpayers are suffering under their command. There are millions of people without any form of health coverage and they are suffering because they are not making enough money to see a doctor or get treatment for an illness. There is something drastically wrong when one of the richest countries in the world can not take care of their people better than that. Why does just a select few receive help? Just because someone does not have any children in the home or are not considered disabled by their standards, they can not get any health care help. They have fallen between the cracks and in many cases can not get health insurance even if they could afford it because they have a serious health issue and health insurance companies only want young healthy members. The country is in trouble and it looks like the government does not care. They have done nothing to change the facts. It is a shame when a person loses faith in their country because the government officials are only thinking of themselves.
