(9,709 posts)for us the last several years. We are over the level to get subsidies, but live in the highest cost housing marketing, highest cost utility bills in the nation, and among the highest water costs. Our premiums combined are as much as our mortgage, just for two of us. All that, and none of the plans cover what I need most, chiropractic and massage therapy for chronic pain from car accident injuries, and major dental work.
I am hoping California enacts healthcare for all legislation moving forward that would cover all of the above free with zero deductibles, as Europe does, but they'r still hashing out how to pay for it.
I truly feel for those in red states who may not even be able to get coverage for pre-existing conditions. AT our age, everyone has some. Before Obamacare, i was denied coverage due to pre-existing skin cancer (basal cell carcimoma) and neck/back issues going back years.
