My Adventures in Supply Side Medicine.

7. I don't understand your question?

I only needed the Blue Cross insurance for about two years and I have good health - no health problems and don't need any meds. And I was so close to being on Medicare. I think that is why I got a low rate.

When I lost my job about 2006 I paid something over $300 a month for Cobra. Then I got Assurant starting about $350, I think. But it kept going up a lot. By the time I opted for the Blue Cross it was up to about $650 a month and covered nothing except catastrophic. That premium was killing me and I was getting nothing for my money at all.

So I was glad for the $228 a month. But, I do have the $5,000 in savings in case I needed it.
