A. Insurance against a catastrophic financial cost.


45% - Get cancer and suddenly my family is bankrupt? No thanks.

quote:

B. Help with doctors visits and prescriptions and cap catastrophic loss but doubt that happens.


10% - I don’t go to the doctor, but I have a child and will do everything in my power to make sure she’s healthy.

quote:

C. Help me access quality care easily.


0% LOL - their website and app and whatever other bullshite is a joke. Quality care is out there, but they ain’t helping me access shite.

quote:

D. I honestly think it’s kind of a scam but I don’t go without it.


45% - huge fricking scam. Healthcare isn’t a joke, but this country sure treats it like one. Honestly pitiful for a first world nation.

quote:

F. I don’t carry private health insurance.


0% - I did this in college, post-grad, and the first part of my career when low cost / catastrophic health insurance for poor students and working adults was dragged out back and shot by the Obama Administration. frick him, his VP, and everyone wearing a suit in DC on both sides of the aisle.

A & C because I now have Medicare and a supplemental and I can pretty much access care where and when and with whom I want w/o insurance company telling me I need authorization and have to wait days to be approved. I also have a catastrophic insurance plan that had portability and I kept up premiums.
Yes, I pay a lot for insurance but it’s important to me and my spouse. After working in medical field, some insurances are not that great.
