The plan meets like 90 percent of the MEC requirements. I don't get why they can't just make their plan compliant instead of having you purchase an entirely different plan at the $50 per month cost. In other words, I'm having to pay $300 now instead of $250, but if they simply added screenings, the unlimited diagnostic tests and immunizations to their plan, the whole things would probably only cost $260. It does sort sound like a scam to get my money by using the Obamacare fine as leverage. Is anyone here a lawyer? There might be some class action that can be taken here.


 

Besides, federal health officials should take notice because the $250 plan's refusal to cover immunizations is a public health threat. Without coverage no way would I get immunized, but if you understand some of the basics there, a society needs to be like 98 percent immunized against a disease in order to create a zone where it can't spread effectively. This plan is a slap in the face to officials trying to reach near perfect levels such as in California where it's now illegal to not get immunized.


 

BTW, the company does offer major medical, but they don't allow for you to add your spouse, and with my new job not allowing me any tax credits/subsidies, I can't afford to have my plan plus pay $375 for her to be on a separate plan. It's also a thorn in my side that any major medical plan now comes with insanely high deductibles. That Kaiser plan was the cheapest plan that includes a $2000 deductible for the both of us, or it would be $1000 just for her. There are cheaper plans with higher deductibles up to $3000 per person, but that's too much of a burden. I was recently faced with a procedure that cost $450 when I was under a major medical plan, and to my shock I got a bit for $400. They said outside of office visits they don't cover me at 80 percent until my deductible is paid, and now I still have to pay off this amount not even having that insurance meaning what I pay (most likely eventually to my friendly Columbia credit agent) won't even go towards a deductible. I realize this new $250 or $300 plan will quickly cap out in the event of major surgery, but it's sure nice knowing I can get a procedure like what I just described taken care of and covered immediately.


 

I miss the days before Obamacare when you could actually get health insurance for reasonable rates with deductibles around a few hundred.
