healthcare

[heckler7]

I used to have great healthcare, the company I worked for gave it to us for free and we didnt pay a dime no co pay, that was 2 years ago. now I got shitty healthcare and I have to pay $600 a month, my employer pays 1k.
If I go to CVS and buy needle tips a box of 100 is $150 I can get them on amazon for $10
glucose test strips generic CVS brand 50 count are $75 I can get them on amazon for $6

isnt that completely fucked

Thanks to Obama and the Democrats.

I was hoping it would work out but its a total shit show like predicted

 

[solidassears]

Yup; I sure hope Trump and the Republicans do something good.. It's so screwed up now, I don't know how it can be fixed without pain. I think the government needs to butt out completely and let the market take over. While allowing some coverage for those who really need it.

if I order blood work from private med labs its 55 or 100, that same shit cost my insurance 1k, bro I wish I was making that up, how is that even exceptable?

 

[solidassears]

It's not acceptable and that's what happens when there's no competition for your health care money. You have no choice because Obamacare took away the ability for companies to compete for your dollars. You have no choice so they charge what every they want. If you had 10 choices you would shop for the best place to spend your money and those 10 would be competing to get your business. Obamacare requires everyone to have insurance and then restricts what your choices are; no completion and the prices go through the roof.

the healthcare mess along with jobs is what got trump elected. I'm hoping for the best but not expecting much

 

[solidassears]

Trump already signed an Ex Order directing the IRS not to read or do anything with the question you're supposed to answer about if you have health care. If you don't want to have health insurance you don't have to now. The penalty is gone as per that Trump Ex Order.

free market in this state for the last twenty years

last yr we had a high deductible plan with HSA (employer sponsored)
it was about 600 a month with HSA contribution for a family of 6
- we wound up getting 1600 taken off yrly premium payments for various health markers (bp, lipids, bmi, tobacco free)- gym payback etc
we spent a little over 7k cash out of pocket- I'm still paying off roughly another 3k for last yrs expenses

it was a bad move

somehow? we went back to normal ins - 30 dollar copay type shit (employer sponsored as well)
and its 380 a month for everyone (still 6 people) ????

I can't figure THAT the fuck out. same insurance company too



both plans had medical, dental, vision, script, short term disability, long term disability and life ins. on everyone.



I don't understand that at all

drug prices are insane tho- I talked to my dr about going back on birth control pills to deal with changing hormone level - she suggested a 3 month continuous pill
ins covers 80 of it- I was expected to pay 260 .. fuck that.
and yeah- my experience with the bloodwork is the same- its easier for me to get my quarterly thyroid bloodwork and cancer screens myself (cheaper all the way around)
needless to say I wont be doing that pill for perimenopause

 

[charley]

..all that shit head can do is sign executive orders. & brag ..what an insecure delusional individual he is proving to be.. this whinny bitch is still moaning & groaning about the popular vote [which he lost by the way] ...as my dear departed father would say that 'trump was born on 3rd base,and thought he hit a triple'.....

geezus, 10 years ago my insulin was $45 and $35 at costco and I was making a shit ton of money, now I take home less money and insulun is $550 and $480, fucking insane

 

[SheriV]

Ya..that's awful
It's probably cheaper black market but can you even trust it if you actually need it?

I noticed my ins. Is actively pushing mail order scripts

 

[so1970]

Same here with the mail order meds.and you gotta buy 3 months worth on top of that. It does save a few$over the home town pharmacy though and every$ counts

Like Bono said in a song long ago, the rich stay healthy while the sick stay poor....

 

[Arnold]

It's ridiculous...

 

[heavyiron]

My health insurance now costs me double what it used to. I also can't keep my doctor I have had for years. Obama lied and f'd us in the a$$

 

[REDDOG309]

It's ridiculous...

I feel sick...

 

[heckler7]

I think everyone who works hard is in the same boat, the folks on welfare just get pre existing conditions covered now. and jerry brown took all our taxes for infrastructure repair and gave it to illegals

 

[SheriV]

I get pre-existing conditions covered now

cancer ftw!

 

[BadGas]

I like it.. never heard this one before.. Tho we do not see eye to eye of T-Rump, I still like it.

born on 3rd base,and thought he hit a triple'.....

 

[BadGas]

WTF .. This says it all.

It's ridiculous...

I'd like to see the ACA fixed

the irony is the all the tweaking and bullshit that made insurance companies rich and made the ACA a bad deal for citizens of the US came from congress (did everyone forget which party has been running the show in congress?)


the last administration is to blame for not bull dozing it through the way it was originally intended- instead of caving to the bullshit so it would just finally get through.
but no one bothers to look at the whole thing- just what their favorite news outlet fed them in bullshit.

 

[bayouboy1]

4 months ago I quit the second largest oil company in the world. They basically told us because of oil And gas prices they was cutting our health insurance.
They went from offering 5 different insurance packages ranging from 100% coverage, all the way down to an 80% coverage plan.
They now only offer a 80% high deductible plan.

At least now the company I work for is one of the few still offering a really good benefit package that includes 100% medical coverage plus much more, and it's totally paid for. Entire benefit package is free for employees, so basically you only pay taxes out of your check.

 

[SheriV]

the employers that still offer good insurance are out there...
only place I hear about people getting shafted on insurance is imf and asf to be 100% honest
not saying it isn't true...just makes me wonder if there's like an area this happens at more or something

 

[solidassears]

That is BS. You have some kind of delusional ability to forget all the stupid shit Obama and the Democrats did. No Republican Voted for ACA Obamacare, not one and as far as changes go:

http://galen.org/2016/changes-to-obamacare-so-far/

"By our count at the Galen Institute, more than 70 significant changes have been made to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, at least 43 that the Obama administration has made unilaterally, 24 that Congress has passed and the president has signed, and three by the Supreme Court."

Not one of the 43 Changes Obama unilaterally made were legal, but you can't even admit that. Your boy Obama did this to us; him and his corrupt Democrat Party. They don't give a shit how is screws us because they exempt themselves. The whole mess is a ruse to enable a complete government take over of health care.
