Broken, broken, broken

This is not just standard medical care (like for an ingrown toenail or something), this ACA nonsense of obozo's includes HUMANA, MEDICARE and ALL PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE COMPANIES.  Just ask me, I know it for a fact.  I don't want to pay for medicare I can't use, I don't want to pay MORE for Humana Rx plans than the medications would cost me without "their plan", and I certainly don't need a private insurance plan who keeps raising their rates every 6 months by more than $50 a pop.  It's pure craziness.

I pay more for the insurance than what I would pay for stuff right straight out of my pocket (of course that would mean making monthly payments like I do on my house, etc, but medical places tend to want THEIR money immediately if not sooner).  Fine, I'll send all my bills to obozo and ol' joe personally.  THEY can pay my bills for me.  I'm not an illegal immigrant, however, so I don't suppose I'd qualify.  My family helped settle the midwest and the northern great plains of the USA but I wouldn't qualify for the same perks as the illegals.  NOW THAT IS DISGUSTING.  We need to boot joe out on his shitty ass - PRONTO.   

Since I lost my husband and this is now a one income household, life has been very difficult.   Paying for food and gas is about all I can handle, forget about paying insurance.

Re: Broken, broken, broken

Someone picked up on what I said yesterday because this is almost the same type of stuff I was talking about.  Sure, you need some types of insurance but medicare is COSTING US MORE THAN IT HELPS US, and that was started under OBOZOCARE and their brain dead ACA crap.  No one wanted it but here we are 13 years later still fighting against it and no one has any plans to change it except Trump. 

Tell me again why joe hollers all the time?  Maybe it's because he's jacked up on drugs or maybe it's because he's pissed off that his "dream of bowing a knee to the nazi's happened under obozo instead".  It's certainly not something I'd wanna take credit for but ol' joe is a brick short of a full load, doncha see?

I'm not even sure what Trump's plans are for healthcare in the future I just think he wants to get rid of millions of illegals before he implements anything that would ALSO, or might end up including them, because that would be expensive for the rest of us and not helpful to Trump's "changes" in healthcare, no?  So you have to follow one thing with another thing and 1st things must come 1st.  Trump knows all of that whereas dumbass biden doesn't have the first fucking clue.

Re: Broken, broken, broken

My AETNA healthcare insurance goes up about $20/mo and has for the past 3 years, (I pay $150/month now) my medicare is exorbitant by current standards and I NEVER USE IT.  Now that I'm 5 years out from having had a stroke, I need only see my doctor once every year (unless something weird comes up) but for that I pay medicare and AETNA premiums that are through the roof.  My humana RX has gone completely off the rails since 2 new drugs were added to my schedule after the stroke and I absolute REFUSE to fill the one for a statin drug.  There's 2 ways I'll take a statin drug - no way and no friggin' way.  So because I refused that one drug, my other drugs are now more expensive under biden's assministration.  He has changed rx's to "tier based drugs" running from tier 1 to tier 5, all having different criteria for pricing, doesn't matter who the bigphrma people are who supply the drugs.

One thing I clearly remember is the nurses coming into my hospital room in early April 2019 when I had the stroke and repeatedly asking for my medicare card.  They only asked for my AETNA card once (I have the Plan G with AETNA which my insurance man informs me is the GOLD plan (the best or whatever but it doesn't matter, since I pay dearly for it for the 11 months of the year I do not use it.  Insurance, AFAIC, is nothing more than a necessary EVIL.  A required necessary rip off because healthcare and meds are now sooooo expensive they are unaffordable.  It doesn't cost $4 to go see your family physician so he can look into your ears and eyes and up your nose anymore.  Heck that's ALL I get when I go to the doctor now so what the hell am I paying for????  I'm paying for everything INCLUDING an insurance premium.  So now things have basically doubled - TWICE.  Medicare pays nothing.
