    Health Insurance Renewal Notice Came Today

    Was paying 930ish per month, the insurance carrier is offering to renew the same exact plan for $1200ish a month this year. Raising rates 25% in this economy shows how bad the health care system is in this country for the people who can afford health insurance.

    Keep in mind, that's a plan that still requires co-payments for medical care and prescriptions while offering absolutely no dental coverage. Even if you take the uninsured entirely out of the equation, the status quo is seriously failing to provide care.

      That's if I just get insurance for (2) individuals. If I choose the family plan it goes as high as $1,800 per month. Living in New York always costs more, but 1-2K per month to be able to see Doctors without fear is absurd.

          thats insane. I would be screwed if I didnt get health insurance through my job. Having pre existing health conditions and health insurance is a bitch.

            We don't need reform. All is well with the insurance in America...I mean who can't afford 1200 a month for 2 people? Which probably doesn't include any out of pocket or anything...

              That is nuts. I pay around $400 here. I'd go insurance shopping and see who can beat that. Mine is thru esurance and the car is with them too so maybe I get a discount.

                  Part of the problem with the current system is that private insurance companies regionalize the insurance premiums. What someone pays in New York for health care is largely unrelated to what someone pays in Chicago. Not because the service costs more but because the insurance companies simply know they can get away with charging more... or because the cost is spread over a smaller number of people.

                  The biggest benefit of a national health coverage plan is that costs become spread over 300 million people rather than the 30,000 or 100,000 that happen to signup for a particular plan offered in a regional market by a private insurance carrier.

                  My insurance is through Oxford and is a very good policy (as compared to what else exists). It does not cap catastrophic coverage, check your policy and you'll probably see it has a hard cap of a million dollars per year on it in the fine print... a million dollars can go by very quicky in an emergency room...

                    You cannot say that to most people in the U.S. They fail to see that it works fine for so many other countries.

                    They like to scream socialism but wanted to vote into the vice president's office the most socialist (former) governor in the U.S. What other state returns the profits from private companies to their citizens in check form? If you guessed Alaska, you get a cookie!

                          The people who are most fond of screaming "socialism" are typically the ones who are of age to receive Medicare and Medicaid. Think about that one for a second.

                              Just changed my plan from very full coverage which was $1,200, to a higher deductible HSA. Premium is $300 a month and I'm putting $200 a month into the HSA.

                              Way too much money is spent on admin / underwriting / bill collection.

                              My wife's doc his office is him, his medical assitant and 3 admin staff. So 75% of his staffing costs are taken up with people dealing with insurance company admin. Thats pretty stupid.

                                  That's fucking nuts.

                                  I've WALKED into THREE different Thai, state of the art, hospitals (no appointments), had a CT scan, MRI scan, seen 2 neurologist, 2 ear nose and throat doctors and 4 general doctors, got several different meds, all for a little under $400. One of them even had western doctors working there.

                                  I went to two other places for 2nd and 3rd opinions on something. Had I not, it would have only cost me maybe $150 tops.

                                  You guys are getting ASS FUCKED in the western world. I'm shocked you slaves of the free world are not rioting in the streets. ASS FUCKED WITH NO LUBE!!!!!

                                      I pay $130 for an insurance that covers me worldwide.... excluding the US.

                                      If I am in the US they won't cover, I have to take a travel insurance

                                            Of course I pay for it through my taxes, but US Citizens pay taxes too, as well as absurd premiums for health insurance. Again, thank god I am a UK citizen.

                                                      Mine is $218/month for my wife and I in az for ppo 2500

                                                      They wont cover anything to do with a previous surgery on my wife,if her problem re-occurs i have to pay for everything.

                                                      Wish it was cheaper =)

                                                        That's the thing. If it were 1,200 per month and covered 100% of all medical expenses it would be a pretty good deal and I would not complain because my taxes are lower now than they would be with 'free' healthcare.

                                                        However, in reality, on top of the monthly payment I ALSO pay 30-50 dollars for doctor visits, 50-100 dollars for prescriptions, pay 100% for any dental work.....

                                                        And worst of all, if I ever get very sick and the bills are in the millions, the insurance company can deny the charges and make me sue them to get the bills paid... unless I die while fighting them or go bankrupt and can no longer continue to sue them.

                                                        Thankfully I am healthy and hopefully this system will get fixed before I am not.

                                                            Ours has a $2k deductible (per person), I'm not sure what the total monthly cost is, prob around $400. No dental or eye care. $200 emergency co-pays, pill co-pays, $50 per normal doctors visit.

                                                            We easily spend $8k-$10k a year, roughly $750-850 a month.

The big fuck you at the end comes in the small print where they put a hard cap on coverage (usually 1 million dollars). I'm paying an extra 300-500 a month to not have the possibility that an uninsured drunk driver can both injure AND bankrupt me....

One of them even had western doctors working there.

                                                                        I went to two other places for 2nd and 3rd opinions on something. Had I not, it would have only cost me maybe $150 tops.

Get full coverage for uninsured motorist with your auto policy and go with a decent health plan and save yourself that extra money it appears you are paying monthly. Have you taken the time to get some new quotes from other carriers at this time? Unless you have some kind of medical condition, I just don't see why your premiums are so high.

                                                                                          The US spends more on health care than any country on the planet yet we are 30th in life expectancy and republicans see nothing wrong with this picture. One of the huge reasons healthcare is more here is the drug companies charge up to 5x more for drugs here than anywhere else, other countries have put a cap on what drug companies can charge, whereas the US does nothing. Its all about money and profits at the expense of peoples lives and republicans fight tooth and nail to keep the corruption going. Anyone that defends the right wing bullshit is either getting rich from health care or a complete fucking retard that should be banned from voting.

You want the benefits of private, you can still get insurance that coveres you for most things (I have pretty comprehensive cover at $80/mo).

                                                                                              Its just beyond reasoning that such a wealthy country can't even provide tax funded healthcare for its people or keep the out of control healthcare industry in check. Last time I was over there I needed some pills which cost me $18aud a pack here (full price). $130 later...

Get full coverage for uninsured motorist with your auto policy and go with a decent health plan and save yourself that extra money it appears you are paying monthly. Have you taken the time to get some new quotes from other carriers at this time? Unless you have some kind of medical condition, I just don't see why your premiums are so high.
                                                                                                Yes, I have priced out the policy with several carriers. I have also spoken to many other people in this area and among them my premiums are very much the norm. I could knock my premium costs down about 300-400 dollars if I was willing to accept a hard cap on coverage (which I believe would defeat the main purpose of having health insurance in the first place).

I have also spoken to many other people in this area and among them my premiums are very much the norm. I could knock my premium costs down about 300-400 dollars if I was willing to accept a hard cap on coverage (which I believe would defeat the main purpose of having health insurance in the first place).
