The Affiliated Computer Services Inc. (ACS) has recently provided funding, 3.9 million to be specific, through an extended year contract with Colorado’s Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+), which would aid in support the program that provides children, 18 and under with and 200% below the United States’ poverty line, with adequate health insurance. ACS’ funding program initially commenced in 2003 and has been extended every year, due to the fact that they find it of utmost importance to ensure that each child whose parents do not have the means or access to health care is able to be properly taken care of under CHP+. Funding aside, ACS also has a distinct purpose, namely in the administration of the website, monitoring eligibility requirements and application processing, as well as the program’s management of grievances and petitions.
ACS is well versed in the general protocol of government healthcare programs’ administration and thus the extension of the contract is comforting to Coloradan politicians and citizens alike.

This 2008 presidential election, it appears one of the largest issues candidates already have or should have on their agenda is healthcare and the potential “universalization” of the issue. The issue is gaining prominence and importance throughout the states, including Colorado, California, Pennsylvania and other states spanning the country. The subject has been particularly reinforced by Governor Ed Rendell of Pennsylvania who has become completely exasperated by the exponentially escalating numbers of uninsured adults in the United States. His emphasis is placed upon the adult population due to the fact that Rendell views the issue of infant and child healthcare to be quite separate and disparate. The governor’s groundbreaking proposal is that individuals shall have the capacity purchase “state-sponsored healthcare” from private insurers at prices as low as $280.00 a month. Such ambitious a goal would be achieved through increased taxes upon “smokeless” tobacco, cigarette purchases and cigars.
Now, of central importance to the argument is whether constituents truly understand that which universalized healthcare entails, namely a government run healthcare program quite similarly modeled to Kaiser. Each option, be it socialized medicine or the program we currently have installed, have their advantages and disadvantages, and thus it is up to the citizens of this country to decide that which suits their needs best.
