Vermont Witness To A Progressive Health-Insurance Law

A bill signed by the Governor of Vermont will elevate the state to being the second in the whole of the nation to enable almost widespread health-care insurance , which will cover nearly 96 percent of its residents by the year 2010.

This is definitely relief for the 46 million Americans who are not under insurance cover. With employer insurance cover on the decline and costs of insurance premium showing an upward trend, this is surely good news for the residents of Vermont.

Now, a novel health-care plan, labeled as the Catamount Health will be on offer by the insurance companies, which will bail out nearly 25,000 people from the uninsured bracket.
