What's the point if you have to shell out that much money before a dime of insurance kicks in. My wifes and my deductible went to $7,400. so $14,800. total deductible. And the price went up some. Same plan as last year.

Just google images of Hospital bills and consider the significant savings you could have. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

No... bottom line is "stay untreated".

I once discussed recent developments in a disease that my cardiologist has, he was fascinated. He has no time to read the latest journals.

The University of Chicago once did a study on the costs of some lab tests... not the fees charged for them but the actual costs to run the tests. Its the biggest rip off I've ever heard of.

I know a guy who was recently bitten
by a racoon. He went to emergency
and they sent him a bill for $12,000
for rabies shots.

He pleaded unemployed and they
said OK, forget about it. It was a
total scam to ripoff an insurance
company. This is our medical
industry.

If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.
