    Hearing is a part of our health. Why do insurance companies now exclude this from their coverage? Children or adults cannot learn if they cannot hear sufficently. Until national health care reform can be made, this is needed.

     What do suppose the unintended consequences of mandating hearing coverage might be?  My guess would be that less people would end up with health insurance because the cost of coverage would have to go up in order to cover the additional expense.  So even though the bill is well intended, it would result in harming the public.

     or that EVERYONE will have hearing insurance, but no hospitalization, because they can't afford both. when the state can provide this insurance at TRULY NO COST TO THE CITIZEN, then and only then should it talk of mandating it.
