AARP Foundation is an affiliated charity that provides security, protection, and empowerment to older persons in need with support from thousands of volunteers, donors, and sponsors.

4 AARP surveyed its members from October 30 to November 8, 2009 about the current health care reform plan in the House of Representatives. This survey of 424 is representative of AARP members in the state of Minnesota and has a margin of error of +/ Awareness A majority of AARP members have heard either some or a lot about the health care reform plan introduced by President Obama and now being debated in Congress. Figure 1 below shows 50 of members have heard a lot and 31 of members have heard some about the health care reform plan introduced by President Obama. Figure 1 How much have you heard about the health care reform plan introduced by President Obama and now being debated in Congress? A lot, 50 Some, 31 Nothing at all, 3 Not too much, 15 Note: Total may be less than 100 due to responses of don t know and refused Elements of House Plan A majority of AARP members find various elements of the health care reform plan passed in the House of Representatives on November 7, 2009 to be a convincing reason to support the plan. In fact, there is strong support across party and ideological lines for elements of the plan. Figure 2 shows the percent of AARP members who find each reason either somewhat or very convincing. Figure 2 Elements of health care reform plan in the House of Representatives Percent who find element a somewhat or very convincing reason to support the plan It would ensure that people can see the doctor of their choice. 84 It would ensure that you can keep your current health insurance 83 coverage if you are happy with it. AARP Minnesota Member Survey on the Health Care Reform Plan in the House of Representatives 1
5 Elements of health care reform plan in the House of Representatives It requires insurance companies to cover routine checkups and preventive care, like screening for diabetes, prostate cancer, and osteoporosis, with no extra charges. It allows Medicare to negotiate lower prescription drug prices with pharmaceutical companies. It assures doctors that Medicare will compensate them fairly for treating seniors, so doctors don t stop seeing Medicare patients. It would prevent insurance companies from denying coverage based on pre-existing conditions. It would stop insurance companies from charging you much higher premiums based on your age. Percent who find element a somewhat or very convincing reason to support the plan It protects Medicare benefits for seniors. 75 It would require everyone to have some form of health insurance, with 75 subsidies for those who can t afford it. It aggressively cracks down on waste, fraud, and abuse in Medicare 74 It ensures seniors aren t paying thousands of dollars in out-of-pocket 73 costs for prescription drugs and closes the Medicare doughnut hole. It prevents insurance companies from putting a cap on the amount of 73 health care you can receive in a given year or over the course of your life. It would provide people a choice of affordable private insurance options and a public plan administered by the federal government if they don t have health insurance or can t afford it. It provides a voluntary program to help people plan ahead so they can afford long-term care services and supports. It would be paid for in part by a tax on married couples who earn at least $1 million a year or individuals who earn at least $500,000 per year. It would reduce the federal budget deficit by $104 billion over the next 10 years Trust in AARP As shown in Figure 3, over three-quarters of AARP members consider various reasons to trust AARP s position on health care reform either somewhat or very convincing AARP Minnesota Member Survey on the Health Care Reform Plan in the House of Representatives 2
6 Figure 3 How convincing a reason is this to trust AARP's position on health care reform? Very Somewhat Not too Not at all AARP monitors how new laws and programs are implemented, so they do not end up hurting seniors and people over 50 As a non-partisan organization, AARP is an independent voice fighting for the best interests of people over 50. With over 40 million members, AARP has the power to ensure that any health care reform bill protects Americans over 50. AARP has always fought to protect its members and wouldn't support any reform unless it was good for people over 50. Note: Total may be less than 100 due to responses of don t know and refused Support for Plan After hearing the details of the House plan, as well as the statement below from AARP endorsing it, a majority of members support President Obama and Congress plan to reform health care. In the health care debate, AARP has chosen a side yours. That s why we re endorsing the health care reform plan in the House of Representatives. Because it ensures you re not denied insurance because of pre-existing conditions or age. It ensures your health care doesn t take a back seat to insurance companies and no one not insurance companies or the government comes between you and the doctors and specialists you choose. Most important, AARP endorses reform because it protects seniors benefits and Medicare so it s there for seniors now and for future generations. AARP is fighting for you because your health is worth fighting for. As Figure 4 shows, 41 of members strongly support the plan and 26 somewhat support it, after hearing the elements of the plan and the statement above. In fact, the percent of members who strongly support the plan exceeds the total percent who oppose it. While a partisan divide is evident when respondents are asked about the current plan in Congress, AARP members support the legislation by a margin of roughly two to one.
