Ours runs out at the end of the month but can pick up an option with $5,000 deductable for $600+ a month for a family of 4.

Anyone have their own coverage that's less expensive :shrug:

I'm an agent here in Michigan. Rates depend on ages, sex, zip code, preX.....get my email from Jack and maybe I can give you some direction.

I had private on my own and was paying 1400 a month with a 3k family deductible for a family of 4.

I've since changed to a high deductible HSA, 5450 deductible but once it's met 100% is covered, I pay 500 a month and am able to put away 6150 I think tax free in my health savings account.

It's not free.......it's built into you taxes. Isn't your tax structure higher then the USA ???

A LOT of people in the U.S. get free health care. A LOT!

Contributions tax deductible--and accumulate tax free--


Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) - ECFA.org

HSAs offer a tax-favored vehicle that allows not only a deduction for contributions and tax-free accumulation, but also eventual tax-free distributions. ...

nothing`s free in this life.....nothing...somebody`s paying for it...

""Last August, in the middle of a season of politician-roasting town halls over the government overhaul of the American health-care system, the Detroit Free Press reported that our neighbors to the north had begun contracting with American hospitals to handle overflow from their oft-praised single-payer system. The effort by Canada attempted to legitimize a natural flow of people with means across the border to seek the immediate care that Canada?s fully-public system could not provide. That story didn?t get too much traction in either the US or Canada, mainly due to the efforts of politicians in both countries insisting that central control of the health-care sector is necessary for reform.

However, that may change now that a prominent politician in Canada has followed the same path as many of his fellow citizens in order to save his own life:


Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Danny Williams is set to undergo heart surgery this week in the United States.

CBC News confirmed Monday that Williams, 60, left the province earlier in the day and will have surgery later in the week.

The premier?s office provided few details, beyond confirming that he would have heart surgery and saying that it was not necessarily a routine procedure""......

:lol:
