I had one tulane doctor come in, shake my hand and bill me for $400 without doing a damn thing.
We uncovered a very small scheme that apparently adds up for pediatricians. Under our old insurance , apparently “obesity screening” was covered. So we never noticed it. After our boys’ first checkups under new policy, we get a bill for $25 ea for “15 minute in person obesity screening” or maybe “consultation.” It takes one second to see that our boys are perfectly healthy weight. They look like Irish street fighters.
Another one I have wasted a few hours battling out of principle

Obamacare was the most disastrous piece of legislation in modern history. So much damage was done to our health care system.
I think we're all still waiting on the promise in 2015/16/17 of repeal and replace to finally happen. It's being tweaked and "close" to being perfected for 10 years now. Roll something the frick out already

This is what Odumbf*ckcare was set up for and what it’s all about.
Obamacare was gutted and nothing was put its place to keep deductible’s down.
It’s not about the price of medical procedures going up it’s about insurance companies making more money.
Obamacare was far from perfect, but it did have some benefits. When Congress failed to act and replace the good parts of Obamacare everyone getting screwed.

I have to sleep hooked up to a machine for 9 hours a day.
All because my stupid arse didn't get regular check ups. Let blood pressure get out of control. And destroyed my kidneys.
What kind of machine requires 9 hours a day? CPAP? It couldn't be dialysis for your kidneys...that's 4 hours at the most 3 times a week.

This should be the biggest talking point on the next presidential cycle....It's out of control and we the people are ALWAYS hung out to dry.
And while that is happening we should be ok with higher gas prices for national security ...... know what? I don't care anymore. I want to pay as less as possible for everything bc in my working career nothing has stayed constant or decreased in price....Nothing.

Same here, we have 3500 employees and switched from BC/BS to United Healthcare.
10% increase in price while deductibles and copays nearly doubled.
Plan will not pay anything until you reach $4,700 Individual and $9,400 family.
max out of pocket is 8k/16K

Obamacare was not gutted.
The essential health benefit and community rating mandates are still in effect. Those are the cost drivers.

While I agree with you, so much blame is on the Republican reps for this shite. Democrats are ALWAYS trying to pass something like this through and Rs let it slide through with the biggest bullshite excuse I have ever heard in my lifetime.
