Does Anyone Have Access to a Copy of the US Senate Members' Medical Insurance Policy?

Posted on 07/16/2017 3:15:18 PM PDT by Be Careful

It would be very interesting to see what the benefits plan looks like. I hope someone can post a copy for everyone to see.

Bonus question #1: Do they still have their special plan if they are over 65, or do they go on Medicare like the rest of us?

Bonus question #2: Do they have care for life, or only as long as they are Senators?

Bonus question #3: Repeat above two questions for staffers.

Just imagine the very best plan available. Then add no deductibles or co-pays ever, no medical problem excluded ever, lifetime benefits for you and your family, and you’ve got it.

What you are failing to grasp is that the Federal Employees Health Benefit Plan allows each person insured under it (about 2.5 million Americans) to DESIGN THEIR OwN INSURANCE PLAN!

There is no “Senate Policy.”

Just like there shouldn’t be an “Average American PolicY” as prescribed by Obamacare.

Keep in mind, most Senators are so wealthy that they don’t need insurance. They’re self insured.

About 350 insurance plans are included in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Plan.

These insurers compete for business from 2.5 million insureds for plans WE THE PEOPLE pay for.

Please. Wise UP!

Come to think of it, the cheap bastards will use the free Cadillac insurance rather than spending a dime of their own money.

Congressional staffers on a similar exempt plan.

It ain’t right for the elected representatives and the anointed insiders to have special plans.

“Federal employees, retirees, and their survivors, enjoy the WIDEST ACCESS TO HEALTH PLANS IN THE COUNTRY.”

Yes, you read that right. You stupid American workers, who can barely afford your benefits, YOU PAY FOR EVERY FEDERAL EMPLOYEE To have “WIDEST ACCESS TO HEALTH PLANS IN THE COUNTRY.”

If you are not mad now, YOU ARE STUPID.

Except when it comes to their prepaid health insurance.

Why do you think they work there?

Actually, no. One of the reasons they are wealthy is that you the taxpayer pay for their insurance.

Get a clue.

Yes. It says, “Treat as necesary, bill the taxpayer.”

To: Be Careful; All
Noting that the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the corrupt feds the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for INTRAstate healthcare purposes, Obamacare therefore unconstitutional regardless what lawless Obama’s state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices want everybody to think about it imo, by providing better healthcare for themselves than for citizens, it can be argued that Congress is effectively establishing itself as a privileged / protected class.

The problem with establishing itself as a privileged class is the following. The Founding States prohibited the feds from establishing protected / privileged classes when they made the Constitution’s Clause 8 of Section 9 of Article I.

"Article I, Section 9, Clause 8: No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States [emphasis added]: And no person holding any office or profit or trust under them, shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign state."

Drain the swamp! Drain the swamp!

Remember in November 2018.

Since Congress is the biggest part of the swamp, it is actually up to patriots to drain the swamp in 2018, patriots supporting Trump by electing as many new members of Congress as they can who will support Trump.
