Uninsured Population Overwhelms Safety Net Health Care !!!

Design Benefit Plans was founded on the premise that not only are health insurance needs different for different people, but also that these needs are driven by other factors.

Irving, TX (prHWY.com) July 6, 2012 - Irving, Texas - The Houston, Texas metropolitan area suffers from one of the highest rates of uninsured residents in the United States, with nearly one in three residents lacking health insurance coverage. Consequently, the 23 community and school-based centers that make up the city's safety net providers is overburdened, with the number of those uninsured within the city four times greater than the 300,000 patients the safety net providers are equipped to serve. This imbalance forces the county hospital district's call center to turn away about 400 people every single day.

Some residents find themselves unable to obtain health insurance due to a pre existing condition. Fortunately, , companies like Design Benefit Plans offer a number of insurance with pre existing conditions coverage options.

Further compounding the issue is the reluctance on the part of providers to accept patients with Medicaid coverage. According to the Texas Medical Association, only one-third of physicians accepting new patients in 2012 were willing to take those with Medicaid, compared to 42% in 2010. Agencies like Design Benefit Plans play an integral role in helping those with pre existing conditions remain insured with various types of coverage including insurance with pre existing conditions plans.

Design Benefit Plans offers a broad range of insurance with pre existing conditions plans, all of which use either the Beechstreet or Multiplan Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) networks, the largest in America.

Being diagnosed with a pre existing condition no longer has to prevent you from obtaining affordable health insurance. Take advantage of the quote engine Design Benefit Plans offers at www.DesignBenefitPlans.com and get your free quote today.
