re: What exactly am I getting out of my health insurance

My mother in law (58 years old) had $1.5 million in claims last year (lymphoma). Her out of pocket max was $10,000 for the year and she pays $1,000 in premium every month. A friend of mine had a baby and baby was immediately brought to ICU in different city. Can only imagine how much this will cost. This is why you have health insurance.
You have a contractural agreement to not owe money the rest of your life after one bad situation.

I feel like I hear stories of people having insurance still going broke when they get sick like all the time
ETA: watch the insurance companies lobby for the Canada shot here so they don’t have to pay for big claims anymore and they can keep suckering healthy people to pay for nothing every month

One of my high deductible plans capped my payment at around 12k...but also capped my coverage at around 100k...so something truly expensive would still have wrecked me.
