as far as the rural areas vs ACA are concerned - before ACA a lumberjack/construction/handyman/hunting-fishing guide etc type dude could by themselves cheap health insurance that wouldn't break the bank off-season. now it's an ordeal.
- drzaiusapelord 9y agoThe problem there is that low rent health insurance didn't cover anything. You'd had catastrophic plans with $2,500+ deductibles and a cap at $25k. It didn't cover preventative maintenance, doctor visits, kids, drugs, etc. It only made sense in a "what if I injure myself at work, but not too seriously" kind of way. I imagine ACA mandated insurance is a net boon here even if the monthlies are more.
