Members TheGloryLand Posted February 16, 2023 Members Share Posted February 16, 2023 I just retired, and I had great news. I can continue with my health plan through cobra for only $867 a month. This means, I have to go work full-time again, to pay my health plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Napsterdad Posted February 17, 2023 Members Share Posted February 17, 2023 Just imagine how much it would be if it WASN'T called the Affordable Care Act! So, what is your annual deductible after paying that "affordable" monthly fee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BrotherTony Posted February 17, 2023 Members Share Posted February 17, 2023 It's still more affordable than some other places I know of. I know while my wife was out after her auto accident that EVERYTHING we got from her STD went to pay Cobra for our healthcare...and some of my monthly SS check as well was being spent to keep it. Have you ever thought of checking out Medi-Share? There are other Christian alternatives that work well, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got a notification from our dentists office saying that their status with our dental insurance provider had changed and he is no longer considered a doctor but is now considered just a provider. They're still taking our insurance, but it has put a lot more restrictions on our dental care. Even our BCBS has changed in the last few months to shift more of the burden onto the subscribers.

Members SureWord Posted April 21, 2023 Members Share Posted April 21, 2023 Back in February I got really sick and had to be rushed to the hospital. I didn't have insurance and my bill turned out around $9000. Fortunately, I'm a poor slob so the hospital paid it for me. swathdiver 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No money, no pay, In an emergency I might have to do the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No money, no pay, In an emergency might have to do the same thing. Not a Democrat plan. All hospitals do it if your income is too low. It's basically charity for the poor. I didn't have any insurance because I quit my regular job and was getting paid a little money per day without insurance by my father's insurance to take care of him 24/7 on his dying bed. Insurance companies would rather have that than outside hospice care. A few days after his funeral I had what the paramedics thought was a heart attack but it turned out to be my sugar was way too high. No job or insurance at the time. I still have a $1700 bill from an outside medical establishment and probably a $4000 one coming in the mail for the ambulance ride. People being broke isn't always because they are lazy, dumb or Democrats. Jim_Alaska and BrotherTony 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most IFB and many SBC churches in the US will stay away from this because of the inclusion of Yoga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
