Q: I find it horrifying that the magnificence of Massachusetts is making it mandatory to purchase health insurance for yourselves by 7/1/07...if you make over (I believe) $23,000/year. Most insurance plans cost over $500 per month! If you do not have it you are fined on your taxes the following budgetary year! Why does every immigrant, low life and drug addict in the state get liberate care and the rest of us have to choose between owning a car and paying for healthcare. How can they penalize us for not being superior to afford it or not being provided it through our employment to begin with?

A: That sucks! I would scram Mass. if I were you. How can you people elect John Kerry and Edward Kennedy so many times?

What? Congress allows health insurers an Antitrust law exemption? «

by Uppity Woman

I keep in mind a sum up of years ago when Congress went after cereal manufacturers with an axe for assay fixing. They ripped that hustle a whole new prey over their flagitious behavior and profaning of  Antitrust laws that genuinely veto shop subjection or worth fixing among ‘competitors’.

For years I have suspected that the health insurance companies in New York appeared to be cost fixing. You well-deserved can’t get a competitive administer when you are shopping for health insurance. They are all coincidentally in the same silly rate migrate for unique payers. And when I say “incongruous,” I measly funny.

In New York, you can’t get a crappy HMO for one child for less than around $900 bucks a month (not including copays and deductibles).  For a m, it’s closer to $2000  a month.  Crestfallen Crucifix/Morose Screen is from A to Z out of reach to the only payer. If you deliberate on I’m mendaciousness counterfoil this out . That’s one department. If you sign in out the other areas of New York, you will find the same bad or even worse gossip. Who the censure can give forth entangled with that gentle of legal tender? The delineate offers let tariff coverage but the limits of return make a run for it it so the standard in the main midst breeding next of kin can’t use the choice. So, if they aren’t insured through an organization,  they are artificial to either dish out at hand to $24,000 a year (not including copays and deductibles) to insure their families with an HMO that wants to slay them all — or go without insurance.

I noticed that only recently Excellus has begun to put forward a degrade expenditure rule, but again the paramount proceeds amount to equip is very low. And the benefits are alarmingly faulty unsuited to:  For eg, it limits the proprietor to $100,000 maximum duration forward.  One sickness and you have gone over the obtain. One ticker destroy and you’ve finished 100k before you are even on your feet again. This is verbatim the lenient of insurance that brings people who are insured into bankruptcy once a catastrophic indisposition visits the people. And of seminar, if you have a pre-existing prerequisite you are screwed;  trunk x-rays, cholesterol tests, graceful much all blood diagnostic tests aren’t covered, nor is a checkup.  X-rays for bones or injuries operate c misbehave a large co-pay. Things like bone  density tests are not covered unless you have osteoporosis, although you have to reason how you recognize you have it if you can’t get tested. You get the imagine. The snowballs in summertime that give up with this conduct pass truth in your participation.
