@pullupspastapolitics: Life doesn’t have to be this way. Healthcare insurance premiums are going up for everyone and it is unsustainable.

🌸Elli🌸 :

And they say that universal healthcare is expensive? Your deductible is higher than what I pay in taxes to have healthcare.. 😱 and to top ít off… you have to pay that amount of insurance as well? Madness

Travel • Biz • Notary • Bites :

i had to pay $340 upfront for a follow up colonoscopy and that just do it at hospital

The Baja Life 🇲🇽 :

Thats not an Insurance policy thats an extortion.

WTFawk :

The majority of people aren't aware of this, but the US federal government spends more on healthcare per person than any other country in the world. The problem with US healthcare is it is profit driven. Hospitals should not have shareholders

Steven Llamas518 :

We just got our open enrollment for work, no increase in premium, about 155 a month ☺️

Colorado Crystal :

I am a mental health provider and in 2027. I will no longer have healthcare but be working in healthcare.😳

Ned :

I dropped my BLUE CROSS that the Post Office was paying most of.

don_dum :

It is ok, if you are a billionaire.

HorseSense :

Maybe the hospital should put ALL the fees in easy to decipher format and reduce the costs so we can just cut out the billionaires that own our Healthcare insurance.

Neil chalmers, obviously 🙄 :

serious question from scotland; why not put what you'd normally pay into a savings account for future medical emergencies and go medical tourist when you need planned treatment?

rj127 :

It's tiresome...

Munchma Quchi :

I feel especially awful for young people who don't know that life doesn't have to be like this. 😞😞😞

Brandon Reynolds 💚 :

Oh I’m just straight losing insurance 😅

drummerboy337 :

What can we do???

multiuniversal art :

that's a new car every year

benzegator :

Yep mine’s going to nearly $500 a month and I only $12.50 an hour. That’s impossible to handle.

Leo dream :

Yes it does

Lawrence T :

Fales

Emily B :

Like what is the point at that cost?

Gmajdy🆘🇺🇸 :

Mine is going up more than $500 a month.

I’m fortunate with employer subsidized coverage. My employer was covering 75%. In 2027 they are covering 62%. That along with increase results in premiums almost doubling for worse coverage. Plus my adult child will fall off in 2027 with no employer insurance.

ftrman80 :

I've never been able to afford it but now its a pipe dream

Brad :

$50,000 a year is over $4,100 a month just in insurance premiums! Even someone making $250,000 annually would be spending 20% of their entire gross income on health insurance alone. And here’s what’s interesting: $24,000 is exactly the ACA’s maximum family out-of-pocket limit for 2027, which is NOT the same thing as a deductible. Are you sure you’re not confusing those two? And is $50,000 what you’re actually paying, or is that the full price before any subsidies? I’m not saying it’s impossible, but those are some extraordinary numbers, and there’s clearly some important context missing.

The Mad Muffin :

Remember History :

my ACA is going up $500/month. Ouch.
