Check Point Comparing Values Holly Regan HSM/210 August 9, 2013 Elfie Neber Comparing Values The social issues that I feel strongly about are homelessness and the mentally ill. When you combine the two, it becomes worse. At no time should anyone have to worry about having a roof over their head or being a productive member of society. Neither has begged for these results as their way of life. We know what causes homelessness, but we are still learning the causes of mental illness.
Veterans keep the story alive of the wars they fought in and teach the younger generations. I cannot imagine a world without veterans, the freedom lost, the patriotism missing from our hearts. Veterans have stood up for our country and helped us get some of the things we have now. They protected our nation, and without them our country may not have had a future.

The purpose of the eligibility period is to reduce insurance costs by preventing people from waiting until after they discover a health problem to sign up for coverage. Both employers and associations may also have an open enrollment period each year, during which you may sign, up for coverage, modify your existing coverage, or add dependents to your coverage. Some of the benefits for a group HMO is you don’t need a physical exam, under a group health insurance arrangement, the insurance company agrees to insure all members of the group, regardless of current physical condition or health history. The only condition is that the group members must apply for insurance within the specified eligibility period.
