I've had 3 plans in 3 years. 2 private and one Obamacare. All 3 were way more than we can afford. For 2 people it's more than our mortgage payment. Obamacare had better coverage, by far, but was the most expensive. Sorry but no way should it cost $1300 for two 60-year-old folks to have healthcare.
I'm now stuck back on a horrible HMO. Even that is $550 a share for just me I've been waiting to see specialists for months, and not the kind of specialists I should be seeing because they are too cheap to do what's right. We make just enough to not qualify for any subsidies, but we are in California and costs of living are the highest anywhere. We're too young for Medicare, but our rates are jacked up because of our age.
We need single-payer healthcare for all and I wouldn't care who introduced it. We should all be for this.
