We don't need no stinkin' plan!
I pay outright for my portion of various medical visits but won't even look at any of the related bills beyond what my insurance covers. I'd be fucked or dead without it and can't for the life of me understand why access to decent and affordable care is granted for one but denied to another. I'm no richer, valuable, loved or anything else than others; I'm just lucky to live within a mile of one of the best hospitals and my previous employer got us a major and reliable provider.
Even at that, once COBRA kicks in, it'll be quite expensive, but again, I'm fortunate it's doable. I think.
