I am also self-employed. My earnings have dramatically decreased other the last few months and my health insurance company juts raised my monthly dues (again). It's pretty much to the point where I can no longer afford to pay and I'm doubting whether it's worth it anyway. Jon www.survivalinsight.com

No paper trail, no patience needed... what America needs to do is to follow countries even not as rich and start to produce and distribute FREE medications for ANYONE in need. It's unbelievable how people play with other's people lives... sometimes for a little amount they stress you out. WAKE UP America/Americans, the labs are making enough money with flu meds, don't let them keep make tons of money with others people misery. HIV/Cancer treatment should be free for ANYONE in need, period.

All of this is well and good but following the suggestions above is a full time job. I am faced with a reduced salary, a denied disability claim, more work than I have ever had, no partner, no money for rainy day, no money for meds, going to food banks to eat, etc. It's easy to say "stop bitching", but I am at the end of my rope and my job does not give a shit. How does a working person get all the paperwork done and meet the social worker, etc. I don't know.

Typically less costly if you are paying a group policy premium instead of an individual policy. For example, a group policy that has a high deductible for any "out of network" providers can mean a much lower monthly premium. A lower percentage of prescription drug coverage (like 70% of medication costs instead of 80%) could cost much less but be very careful about co-payments for the drugs you need. Many people have never shopped for insurance. We all have to, at least for now.
