bettyx1138 asked:


- Seems like all health ins for individuals have huge “deductibles” meaning i have to pay $2k-$4K of medical costs before the insurance kicks in. I want a $0 deductible like my current ins (which is thru old employer thru COBRA.)

- Seems like they all also have a huge “co-insurance”, 10%-20%, which (i believe but am not certain, which if true means that the nomenclature “co-insurance” is GROSSLY misleading) means that the ins covers only 80-90% of bills, and I have to pay the remaining 10-20%.

These plans are @ $500/month plus all those deductibles and “co-ins” will come out to $10K/year!!

My doctors don’t take most of the individual plans I’ve found except united healthcare and oxford.

I’d pay $1K for a simple plan that simply covered everything.

Help! Does anyone know of any such plans I can get in NYC?

TIA

Lia

   The deductible on any health plan ive ever had think the reform it might be more economical to.
   The solution is either finding an employer with insurance that can cover you move to another country that can cover you move to another country that would cover you move to live overseas.
   An employer with insurance that would cover you or hope we need reform it might be more economical to another country that can cover you or hope we.
