$0.00 full coverage everything.

I paid mine in full for my lifetime years ago via serving my country. I don't mind the V.A., not sure why so many people complain about it.

So that's $31,500.00 in a calendar year before the insurance company has to start paying.

That is in no way shape or form "insurance". That's mafia!

We can thank $150 Asprin and $500 ice packs for that one. Our insurance companies are paying it with a smile, raising your premiums with every increase in cost of care. Proper regulation of the medical supply and pharma industries is where our real hope is. It literally costs over 10 times more to have a child here, than in most developed countries... It's quite the scam.


Not familiar with the difference between hospital charges and insurance allowables I see.

$1090 a month for wife, myself and 2 yo. 5k ded,

forcing everyone to pay maternity now on your insurance greatly increases your premiums. prior to the obamacare, you could opt out.

$1940/mo for husband and myself. We are both 61 and Oh so happy that we both have maternity coverage, pediatric vision and pediatric dental coverage. However, we no longer have coverage for ourselves to have yearly vision check-ups.

$150/month for just me with United Healthcare.

My wife pays about $175/month for her and our daughter with Blue Cross/Blue Shield.

Both are with our employer.

$200/month for an HSA plan. Pisses me off because I haven't needed medical attention in years.

Don't know if your spouse works, but we found that having separate plans and putting the kids on one of ours was considerably less than all being on the same family plan. Seems backwards but it's true.
Also, yes, things were much more affordable and service was far better before the POS ACA was voted in. Short term state budget fix for a long term screw-over of your constituents. Thanks Mary Landrieu!
