We have a ridiculously high deductible, and we hardly ever get medical care anyway, so it's really just "house insurance". I agree with Bhairtu - insurance executives belong in jail as they are murderers, and private insurance companies should be shut down. Rick, how come you've never checked out the AARP's insurance? (Or maybe you have) Very reasonable rates, to put it mildly. I pay $46/month with the highest deductible, there are all sorts of other plans with lower ones, of course. But nothing like what you're paying--and if you're just using it as god-forbid ins anyway, it makes sense to have a high deductible. Really the only reason I even have it (the kids are on another plan) is because I feel you get treated better when you go to a doctor that doesn't know you. How high is that "highest" deductible, if you don't mind my asking?
