I'm from a developing country and while our healthcare system has its many flaws, our health insurance systems are not this too complicated! We mostly have HMOs -- where your premiums are tiered accordingly, the higher the tier, the more coverage (in terms of illnesses, op treatments, etc.) and higher premiums. For some, they also get a Life Insurance with HMO benefits attached to it. We don't have deductibles, co-pays, co-insurance and oop. When you see your bill, you'll see simply see 'patient's due' or 'out of pocket'.

Thank you! But gosh I'm still unsure. There's only $1,000 out of pocket max difference between our high(no deductible) and base plan(deductible 1,500). The high plan would be a bit over $5000 more a year in premiums. Wouldn't it make sense to pay less in premiums and if we get really sick, just reach the max out and then all is covered? Thanks!

I went to the emergency room in nov 2020. My blood sugar was too high for the machine at drs care to read. I was misdiagnosed in the ER as a type 2 diabetic. In dec of 2020 I was tested for antibodies and it turned out I was a type 1 diabetic. Because I was so unprepared I am still paying off my ER bill. Last year my company switched insurance to Aetna and started using their simplepay program. Its been an absolute nightmare and has been flat out horrible. This year we just got our open enrollment emails. They kept the aenta simple pay, but have now added a PPO type option and a HDPD option. Im trying my best to research with option is the best for me. I feel like im trapped between choosing 3 crappy options and im so stressed out. I feel like making the wrong choice could absolutely blow up my finances. Insulin isnt cheap.

Saying other countries have it but don't mention their wait times, their unwillingness to treat certain conditions and Americans paying for the defense, misses the mark. This also doesn't help us as if we can change it. And yes, I know thie comment is old.

I am a fairly young type one diabetic (28/male) who see's my endocrinologist probably 3-4 times a year. I am well controlled and only use my insurance mainly for those visits and to get my medication (insulin,pods,cgm). Should I get the HDHP plan or stick with the PPO plan. HDHP is $29 versus the PPO being $123 biweekly (saving $200 monthly seems like a lot to me, but not sure how this will affect my costs). Not sure if theres a bigger discounts on my medication or how it will affect my visits

@purplegirl8036 Жыл бұрын

I think I understand the high deductible now. Basically no one can actually afford health insurance so you pay low premiums and then will pay everything else out of pocket. If you get a major illness then a $10,000 deductible is a discount if you owe millions or hundreds of thousands of dollars.

@wealthfrontvideos Жыл бұрын

They typically aren't paying in full for it. For example, many health insurance plans cover 80% of the cost, meaning you cover 20%. This 20% adds up until you meet your deductible.

health care is better up here in Canada then in the USA because Canada has government health care, with private health care like in the USA , lots of money is wasted on advertising , when that money could be better spent to give someone health care that desperately needs it. if you live in the USA and you are trying to choose the best health care the choice is easy , move to Canada. American health care sucks.
