Just a few more weeks before we launch MyHealthandMoney.com, and begin working for our subscribers to reduce their healthcare costs, show them how to purchase healthcare, and bring companies in to solve problems. It’s been a long road creating our online organization from scratch – a white paper idea that has taken shape and form over many months.

I suppose this is how Congress is feeling right now as they haggle and mull over healthcare reform. There are times when you feel certain about your decisions, and then a new idea or opinion walks in the door and you’re not sure mandates will work, or a public option is the best course of action. The goal is always the same: provide all Americans with access, and cut the costs of healthcare for employers, consumers and government. You know what you want to do, but how to do it is in the details.

We’ve heard high-level concepts for many days now. We’ve also heard different price tags associated with different options. At the end of the day, no one is certain that the bills circulating the halls of Congress and the sidewalks of America will have the reform impact we all want and need. The future isn’t written yet so the road feels risky, and the outcome unsure. We keep working toward a bill, however, because it’s too late to turn back. Too much time has lapsed to do nothing.

Our site is being tested, and the final content loaded. We’ve put a stake in the ground that we can help patients get what they need, and form an empowered consumer group that will claim its right to affordable healthcare. We know what we set out to do, and look forward to our subscribers leading the way into the future with their wish lists of things we need to develop for them. Action is good for the soul.
