Insurance premiums are going thru the roof this year because no one knows how this new health care is going to hit them......

I am self employed and have gone without health insurance for a while. I have been very healthy, with the exception of bouts of high blood pressure and high cholesterol. I was told both could be treated with diet and exercise. Both in place.
Here is my dilemma. I am older so I am more high risk. The best insurance I can find cost close to $500/month for my wife and I and it has a $3000 deductible for each of us. Basically we will be paying $6000/year for catastrophic insurance and will pay $3000 for each of us until the insurance kicks in. If we just have some preventative care, we could end up spending upwards of $8000 a year without accessing the Insurance.
Any suggestions from others who are self employed?
Thanks!
