My Girlfriend just turned 62 and was paying to Anthem Blue Cross... [View all]

[busterbrown]

$440 a month with a $7,000 deductible.. She had been with this carrier for almost 20 years on a high Premium
Plan with good benefits.. It all started happening around 55 when the premiums started going up $30, $40, a month until they finally reached close to $700 a month... So she got a $7,000 dollar deductible plan and immediately had a Meniscus Operation which sucked up the deductible..(By the way this is the second minor surgery she had in 22 years. No other illnesses thank God.

So there she was now on this shitty H.C. program paying now close to $500 a month $6000 a year. Out of work with a few assets which she had to protect.. (No House) 6000 x 3 years is $18,000 until Medicare with no job..

Then came Cover California. and then came a healthcare plan which meant no premium payments from now until Medicare....This is a life changing event. The clinics she is using are great and the stress of not having to come up with $500 a month is so freaking relieving.. She just had to prove that she had no income all..

I think the Cover California Plan is applicable in every state which accepted the Fed. Medicaid..
Can you imagine living in one of the states which doesn’t have these plans? I’d be in the streets. Why is there not open revolt (non-violent) in States where Medicaid subsidies were rejected? Live are freaking at stake here..
