ʻAʻole paha ko mākou pelekikena hou i ka Oval Office, akā ke loli nei nā hanana.

Ke hana nei ʻo ICYMI, ka Senate a me ka hale i nā hana i ka hoʻopau ʻana iā Obamacare (aka the Affordable Care Act). Ua ʻike mākou e loli paha kahi noho olakino o nā wahine me Donald Trump e lawe ana i ka pelekikena a me nā Repubalika i ka mālama ʻana i ka Senate a me ka Hale (a ʻoiaʻiʻo nō, ke hele nei mākou i ka hopena o ka kaohi hānau manuahi). Akā, nā poʻo i luna: ʻAʻole kāu mau pūʻolo mahina o BC wale nō nā kumukūʻai mālama ola pale e piʻi nui aʻe inā pili lākou i ka Affordable Care Act (ACA).

ʻAʻole wale paha ka hoʻopau ʻana o ka ACA i ka 20 miliona mau kānaka me ka ʻole o ka inikua ʻole, akā ʻo ke kumukūʻai o ka mālama pale maʻamau ʻana e like me mammograms, colonoscopies, a me ka vaccine shingles paha e ʻike paha i nā piʻipiʻi kumukuai nui, e like me kahi hōʻike hou na Amino, kahi mālama mālama ola pilikino. hui Ua ʻeli hohonu lākou i loko o ka waihona ʻo Amino (kahi e uhi ai kokoke i kēlā me kēia kauka i ʻAmelika) a nānā i nā kumukūʻai o ʻelima mau kaʻina hana e pale ai: nā mammograms, nā kolonexies, nā lāʻau āpau shingles, nā mea intrauterine (IUDs), a me nā tubigation ligation (aka "get your tubes hoʻopaʻa ʻia") me ka ACA ma kahi a me ka mea i manaʻo ʻia ma hope o ka hoʻopau ʻana.

Nā hopena? He $267 paha ke kumu kūʻai o ka mammogram maʻalahi a he $366 ke kumukūʻai o ka maʻi shingles, ʻoiai ʻo ka colonoscopy maʻamau hiki ke piʻi i luna o $1,600. Kuhi ʻia kahi ligation tubal ma kahi o $ 4,000. Ke noʻonoʻo nei i ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi Mirena IUD? Inā kali ʻoe a hiki i ka hoʻopau ʻana ma hope o ka ACA, hiki ke uku iā ʻoe ma mua o $1,100. ʻOiai ʻokoʻa kēia mau kumukūʻai i kēlā me kēia mokuʻāina (e nānā i ka infographic ma nā mammograms, no ka laʻana, ma lalo), ʻo ia nā waena nā kumukūʻai i manaʻo ʻia, e like me kā Amino noiʻi.

ʻO FYI, ka ACA i kēia manawa koi i nā hui ʻinikua e uku no ka 100 pakeneka o ke kumukūʻai no ka hapa nui o nā lawelawe pale maʻamau e like me nā lāʻau lapaʻau, ka nānā ʻana i ka maʻi kanesa, a me ka mana hānau. Hele aku ka ACA, a pēlā nō kēlā uhi.

E hoʻomanaʻo i kēia mau lawelawe pale aku a paipai ʻia e nā ʻoihana mālama heath e hana ma ka reg-no laila ʻaʻole pono ʻoe e heʻe iā lākou. Ua hoʻēmi ka American Cancer Society (ACS) i ka helu o nā mammogram i paipai ʻia, akā hoʻonohonoho mau i ka pā me nā kaha makahiki mai ka makahiki 45 a hiki i ka 54 a laila i kēlā me kēia makahiki ʻelua. ʻAʻole emi pinepine ka poʻe colonoscopies-paipai ka ACS i kēlā me kēia mahina i kēlā me kēia 10 mau makahiki e pili ana i kāu makaʻu. Akā he mea maikaʻi kēlā, ke noʻonoʻo nei he pipiʻi nani lākou. No ka ligation tubal? Mahalo i ka hana he hoʻokahi a me nā hana i hana ʻia, no ka mea, he kikoʻī maoli ka uku ʻana iā 4K ma mua o hoʻokahi manawa.

"ʻO nā kulekele o ka ACA no ka nānā ʻana i ke olakino a me nā lawelawe pale e pili ana i ka noiʻi paʻa e hōʻike ana i ka mālama pale ʻana e hoʻomaikaʻi i nā ola a mālama kālā," wahi a Dan Vivero, Luna Nui o Amino. "E hoʻohana pono ka poʻe ʻAmelika i kēia mau lawelawe manuahi i nā mahina e hiki mai ana, no ka mea e loli paha ke kumukūʻai iā lākou inā ʻaʻole koi ʻia nā ʻoihana ʻinikua e uhi piha."

ʻO ka nūhou maikaʻi: I kēia manawa, pono ka ACA e uhi i kēia mālama pale a pau, no laila ʻaʻole i lōʻihi ke kākau ʻana i nā koho āpau āu e pono ai i kēia manawa. ʻO ka wikiwiki, e nā wahine.
