Increased. Again.

Our son (age 24) is on our plan until he is 26 or until he gets his own insurance, which, fingers crossed, is any day now. That's a big savings.

A challenge.

Should you ever have need at a hospital, as I have recently, present yourself as 'Direct Pay' and record the prices for insurance, medicare and direct pay.

My observation was 'direct pay' (paid in full) was less then the deductible.

My choice was to pay more to simply pay ahead to contribute to the deductible pay down.  Until you take the challenge and see for yourself, you won't understand how obscene health care is. 

My engagement was with Advent and Morton Plan Meese Countryside.
