Health Insurance

I've been looking into the cost of health insurance for the last month or so. Not very cost effective unless theres some kind of tragedy! With all the copays, coinsurance, deductibles and uncovered expenses you could just pay for everything yourself much cheaper as long as theres not a tragedy. Hell, if it takes 5 years or so before theres a minor-medium type tragedy you could have paid for that also as long as its not an extreme tragedy. For an individual policy its reasonably affordable but not for a family. We dont have enough people to qualify for any discounted group rates. I just finished cutting back the overhead of the business which was not an easy or fast thing to do. It took almost a year to get it down to where it needed to be. I think im just going to have to cover my employees and not my own family. This is really sad! I guess I will have to wait a year or two and see what becomes of the current health care laws, options, etc.... :dry:

Well, i think Lanny might have something there. Maybe We will go with a policy with an affordable monthly fee ( and accompanying higher deductible ) even though it really only pays off in the event of a disaster. That would prevent financial ruin due to a health crisis. We can pay our own way with all the little stuff. We all seem to be in decent health and don't use doctors very often anyways. :dry:

Jed Said: That way I always have six or seven pairs and dont have to go looking for something I cant see (like them boys over on the science and religion thread :laugh: .

Your body looks for air all the time can you see it?

I had the same issues. Still do, to be truthful.
