What are the deductibles on your health insurance plan?

I see most of the plans on CNN/NBC etc include a $5,000 deductible. So if you do get sick what does that mean? That you have to pay the first $5,000?

I know if I have a wreck in my car that the insurance company will pay all of the damages except for $500 and that part is up to me to pay the garage, right?

But as we all know garages can be shady and charge you more with a little kick back if you use them for say a fender bender. How can health insurance be any different?

They will overcharge and expect to be paid back by the feds. I asked the local VA clinic about "obamacare" and they said, "we don't know yet what it will do for you" ...

In other words come back after it is finally working January 2014, but yet I see on TV that the VA is pushing for vets to sign up for "obamacare".

Now why would the VA be for "obamacare" I asked myself and then I realized that the VA is mostly free for veterans (unless you have a lot of money). Simple deduction they will now get paid back for all of their services to veterans.

One more problem is the five hundred (500) million dollars to be taken from medicare for the implimation of "obamacare". Where will that money come from?

I know one way it will come is from senior citizens having to pay for medicare which was $75 a month three years ago and has gone up to $125 a month and is expected to go up to $200 a month by January 2014 and that information does not come from the web, but from the social security office I talked to.

What will keep the cost of paying for people that don't have medical insurance ... did I say that wrong?

What will keep the cost of people now getting health insurance via "obamacare" that is what I mean?

What will keep that cost from going up year after year after year? These are real questions that no one can answer and this is why we should delay the healthcare act and study it more thoroughly.

They (the US Congress) interview sports stars for their drug use and question IRS agents about tea party exemptions getting no answers, but they can't sit down and hash out a better plan because they are wasting their time on other silly matters.

Have you noticed that when President Obama talks about his health care plan that he even calls it "obamacare"? Sounds kind of vain to me


Correct, you pay the first $5000.00.
Correct on the car damage. You pay the $500.00 deductible.
Yes, insurers have watchdogs for those attempting to overcharge. However, a new scam I have seen concerns insurance for ones pet. The vet charges more if it is on the insurance co.

I can not say anything about the VA. I would think the vets still get the care that was provided before and at the same cost. I believe it is free. I don't know.

As for the elderly, I know of two dropped by ETNA.

To be honest, the coverage of the medical will come from tax payers. I honestly don't know where anyone else would think it is coming from somewhere else. Also add that those already insured pay premiums for the uninsured. These premiums will probably go up

And yes, BO looks quite arrogant. But, to save some sort of dignity he must stand his ground. If he caves his presidency from here on out will be laughable at best.
