And the Winner Is...

See how human-centered designers answered our challenge to encourage more people to complete advance directives and document their end-of-life wishes.

With the Healthy families program being taken away, will the income guidelines for medical change? I mean at six years old the child is discontinued if a family of three earns more then $1500.00/mo... Or I can stay on medical and pay a detuctable of $864.00/ per month per child...with an income that is barely half then that. Don't get me wrong I am definetly willing to pay for my health insurance but the numbers just aren't adding up. Create something that the upper lower class and lower middle class can afford and you wouldn't have to cover the bill for so many of us.


Sarah.
