I am one of those people in the news that lost their health coverage involuntarily, thank you obama sir.
Going forward, cash only. No more of the insurance scam stuff. opinion. I take my premiums, put them in an envelope marked Health Fund, keep a log of when money goes in and how much.
In the past, a visit was billed to my insurance at $250. But since the deductible was so high, the visit was not covered. I had to pay the $250. Every time. (sort of makes you wonder about the usefulness of the whole insurance thing)
So today I told them I no longer have insurance and I will pay cash. Guess what the bill was this time? $114.
HHmmm. Something fishy going on in the medical/insurance world. If it costs that much more to do business with an insurance company, well, what can I say. You figure it out.
