As a lone gunman, insurance is really expensive. My family is relatively healthy so we got a HSA account, aka "Health Savings Account". It basically means that we fund our own insurance (tax exempt) for common doctor visits, but BCBS kicks in if the amount goes over $5K in a year. Basically, it's catastrophic insurance.
What I like about it is that I become the customer of the doctor. Normally, the doctor is doing what the insurance company wants him to do. It's amazing how a doctor treats me differently when they learn that I'm paying the bill. I get much better treatment, IMO. -Kevin Michael Madigan wrote: > I'm in NJ. > > --- Rick Schummer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > >>>> Anybody have a great deal on medical insurance? >> My Cobra runs out the end of February.<< >> >> Medical insurance is specific to the locale you >> reside in.
