Hawaii Likely To Be Exempt From Obamacare

National health reform bills in the U.S. Senate and House would exempt Hawaii, protecting the state's 35-year-old Prepaid Healthcare Act, which has led to one of the lowest uninsured rates in the country and low premiums for workers.

Having moved to Hawaii from California State, I must say that I remain very impressed with Health Care in Hawaii. Not only are my medical insurance rates lower by almost half, for equivalent care and coverage, but I find the care here to be more efficient, more comprehensive, more thorough and more preventative.

And, I might add, the cost for insurance in Hawaii is also considerably less for automobile and homeowner's.

Go figure.
