Recently had an x-ray and an MRI done on my leg. My out of pocket cost was at least around $600. I'm not exactly sure what my health "insurance" covered. You never know what your insurance will cover until the bill arrives. What are my options? I don't have free choice. I have two plans offered by my employer. Shit and Shitty. Worse, they found nothing wrong with my ligaments. The x-ray was a waste. I was told to keep a "pain journal" of any specific movements and positions that cause discomfort.
Tear it down. I rather have the peace of mind that I am just covered no matter what, even if it means I pay a bit more in taxes. Let me focus on work and life. Not healthcare.
I do understand the problems this creates for a healthcare system organized around private insurance. I get this will have a negative impact on the economy by putting those companies out of work, but I'm deeply unsatisfied with this system. Even finding a doctor on my plan can be difficult.
