Nebraska doctors urge voluntary prepaid health plans
The Nebraska State Medical Association urges every citizen to insure against costly illness through voluntary prepayment. Dr. A. J. Offerman of Omaha says such plans, including Blue Cross and Blue Shield, protect families from financial shock and let people shop for the best option. He argues voluntary plans are affordable, comparable to everyday purchases, and superior to federal compulsory health insurance which he claims would raise payroll taxes and centralize control.
