Insurance Company: Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association
Coverage Type: Health Insurance
- Underwriting - Premium Too High
I don't know to be honest if Obamacare is a good thing. I'm sure it is for the poorest of Americans. I heard that Obamacare is supposed to reduce overall healthcare and insurance costs. What I do know is having a choice between $550 per month for decent insurance, or half that to have insurance with a $1300 deductible before it kicks in, is f-ing ridiculous to ask of a family struggling to stay afloat. I would like someone, anyone (non-partisan), to explain to me how this benefits my family. Or when a working class family will reap ANY benefits of health care reform. If you ask me, it should be illegal for employers of full-time professionals to offer such little reimbursement toward health care. Oh yeah, and Cindy's pregnant now, so we should hit that $1300 deductible RIGHT when the calendar year expires and another $1300 deductible kicks in.
Somebody please explain to me how this legal. If you can't help me to understand this, please at least extend the courtesy of replying to my email with the address of someone who can. Now...I'm off to go pick up a $110 prescription.
