As is not allowing interstate competition, and not requiring pricing to be published, and not paying rebates for seeking out less expensive treatments.
I'm my own employer, and the exchange choices are shitty beyond belief. I pay $15K/yr for a family of 3 (that's excluding the considerable deductibles), and I'm not even sure to what extent I will be covered if I e.g. break a leg. The premiums go up every year like clockwork, and will likely go _way_ up this year, due to C19.
I'm thinking of just finding a clinic somewhere abroad if shit really hits the fan, and going without insurance in the US at all, covering my yearly physical out of pocket. It boggles the mind that politicians are proposing to sink trillions more into the bottomless money pit that is the US "healthcare" system.
