If you are doing Open Enrollment right now, be prepared for sticker shock. If you are buying private insurance, be prepared for sticker shock. And oh by the way, if you are going with the obamacare, you will have the same sticker shock. We have shopped all 3 and out of pocket expenses, deductibles, and co-pays are very close across the board. Yes, you can buy health insurance but you cannot afford to use it unless you are prepared to clean out your savings. I am bad at math and even I can see that this will lead to people drastically reducing their spending, it will also lead to people not seeking care when they are ill because they cannot afford deductibles and co-pays. This will lead to secondary infections that are much worse and we will see an escalation in deaths. Your choices- with private, company, or obamacare- are bronze, silver and gold with variables in each category. And that stuff about accepting pre-existing conditions? Ed has had one since 2000 and had no problem getting affordable insurance. Now? He can still get it but the price has more than doubled for premium and quadrupled for deductible. Please explain how that has helped us?
