Even More Obamacare Follies

[Carl Pickens]

It may have a rationing effect.

Let me make certain i understand you; you pay $10,800 in premium for the year and must pay the first $6,800 ( $17,600 total) of your medical services before the insurance benefits begin?

Boggles the mind doesn't it? this POS law has screwed me like you wouldn't believe.

 

[Carl Pickens]

Well, someone in his family may have a chronic condition which requires routine and costly intervention. But if the members of Carl's family are relatively healthy, this is a ripoff.

This is an understatement

 

[Carl Pickens]

You got to keep your doctor, right? You got to keep your insurance, right? Oh wait... sorry.

Obolacare is the biggest abortion the democrats supported.

Sorry Carl, seriously. Best of luck to you and yours to remain healthy.

Thanks..... Just think what a kick in the teeth it would be if a kid tore an acl like a couple of years ago. Anyone that thinks the middle class isn't getting screwed by this law is just dumb. If your combined household income is $94k and above you don't qualify for any subsidy.

Is a Health Savings Account an option for you?

I've had one at work since last January and I think this is the best option - you can save tax free and the savings account stays with you regardless of employer.

Use it or lose it.

Nope. You are thinking FSA not HSA.

HSA balance carries over and no validation of receipts to 3rd party administration company either.

My HSA balance carried over nearly $1000 from last year's contributions.

I believe you I've just never been offered that through our health insurance. It's the flex spending account and you either use it or lose it.

I think ours just started in 2010 or 2011 - can't remember.

I like it a lot - don't think I will ever change back to a traditional plan.

Carl, do you get a max out of pocket with that? I'm guessing you do. Like 5k neighborhood.

If people could pay $5k out of pocket they wouldn't need insurance.

If your not receiving a subsidy, then you are indirectly paying a subsidy to someone else through these high prices. Obamacare is a transfer of wealth scheme. As a result, no one knows the true cost of insurance. What would the premiums be if the government wasn't involved? Also, how/who decided the current cost of the (bronze silver and gold) plans as they are stated? It couldn't have been free market forces. The prices are basically being set ie. Gruberized.

More like analized..... If you really review the various plans you'll see that the benefit levels are definitely rationed. One will give you dr copays, but no drug card and things like that.
Rationed care and overpaying to subsidize those receiving subsidies is all this POS law is about.

Don't forget stuffing huge amounts of cash into the insurance companies pockets. It's about that also.

soon we will be going to Canada for treatmentt

I've got a bronze 06 if I recall.....$6800 deductible, $3 generic and $35 (I think) name brand RX, no Dr visit coverage...I pay in full. $900 and change/month....F U democrats that voted this POS into law

That's vomit-inducing.

Is this a trick question?

It (for the time being) protects them from losses. But it also caps how much money they can make.

Mehh. Let em die off if they can't pay or let somebody else bite the bullet.

And that is a good thing?
