Actually, I think that might be a good thing. If we are buying it ourselves, it may affect packages/pricing offered.

As much as I HATE the whole “healthcare reform” crap, I must say that insurance companies haven’t done much to help their cause, and even got into bed with the administration with the promise of all these new subscribers. Now they will find out that you just can’t trust a bunch of liars.

I agree, I think most insurance companies will be lucky to keep out of bankruptcy. Maybe it will even go back to reasonable prices since, if there is no insurance, there will be no lawsuits for malpractice.

Personally, I think that medical savings accounts with policies for catastrophic events would be the way to go.

Insurance is suppose to be state regulated, not federal regulated. If I was going to promote a solution it would be a growth in local mutual insurance companies. At one time we had a lot of these and I wonder what it would take to promote them again.
