Millions of aging adults in the USA and abroad go without health insurance at critical points in their lives. Many go without insurance because they can no longer be employed, cannot afford it, or are waiting for social security benefits to begin. Many others will never qualify for good quality insurance that can meet their needs; and if they do, they will not ever be able to afford it. So many parents did so much to care for the needs of their children, yet suffer from illness and disease for which they cannot be treated due to this gap in healthcare coverage and affordability. The simple solution is not a healthcare reform, tax changes, or political action campaigns. The simple solution is to put change in people's hands. Allow adults to cover their parents insurance if they choose.
