We were talking the other night. If we have to go to Doctor with sore throat etc., we are going to take cash along with the HSA card.

Ask the Dr. office how much if we pay hard cold cash? Worth a try. From what I am hearing from friends, there are many companies going to this high deductible HSA program. IMO, going forward, smart Doctors will post prices to make their offices more efficient.

Seems like a smart person could make money advising medical offices on marketing strategies.

I had an HSA plan with $3,000 deductible that I loved (I'm 28). I was using it as a stealth IRA for investing.

Unfortunately, company decided to scrap it so I got kicked out.

I didn't think the High Deductible plans would survive after Obamacare. I do think High Deductible plans should be mandatory. It would create an incentive for everyone to keep costs down.
