Medical Insurance Doubled
Posted on 1/2/26 at 1:51 pm

My 21 year old son’s medical insurance just went up from $272.00 per month last year to $534.00 per month. This is a BCBS policy I’ve had on him since he was 15. He’s had no major health issues of any kind.
WTF is going on??

Either indirecty or directly the answer is yes.

Probably because he is an adult on someone else's policy and at a higher risk to abuse the service. People who spend other people's money are not good for business.

Well just think what it would be without the AFFORDABLE Care Act.
See, it's right there in the name

I self insured in my 20’s. Never needed the doctor once, but if I did, just pay at the check-out desk.

I purchased this individual policy for him myself 9 years ago. I’m self employed.

I have an individual policy for him. How would he abuse it? He’s a fit and healthy young man who exercises and is obsessed with healthy eating.

This doesn’t matter. It’s not car insurance.
