Quote:So what, you can only buy plans from insurers in FL? Aren't most insurers nation wide?

 

I don't know I still think health insurance is a thing that as long as it's required it will be taking advantage of people. I mean the rates they can charge based on things like pre-existing conditions can be insane. They do everything they can to not pay out claims. It's just crazy to me that in this day and age we treat healthcare like a big business and in a lot circles laud these guys. It's not oil, healthcare shouldn't be treated like a commodity in my opinion. 

 

Yes, you are not permitted to purchase insurance from another state. That's because the states run their own insurance commissions and set the requirements to sell policies within their borders. And everything in life is business, for physicians who provide the healthcare there can be no service if there is no margin.
