re: #90 calochortus

I have no idea what Compound Idaho is paying, but as far as I can see with our Kaiser, we’re better off sticking with our current plan than the new ones under the ACA. We wouldn’t get a subsidy and I therefore I think they might even cost a bit more (though it is hard to tell what with differences in co-pays and whatnot.)

A lot of people have a hard time understanding the issues involved in buying your own insurance, it’s one of the reasons most people never noticed the healthcare crisis. Most people never saw the complexities and costs because they have insurance through their employers. In the past insurers were very eager to look for any excuse to cancel plans and make people sign up for new plans which cost more and have fewer benefits. I really wish I still had the same coverage plan I had 10 years ago, I’m pretty sure I couldn’t even buy that plan today regardless of cost. It simply wouldn’t be offered.
