I think what they mean by “medical care when needed” is when a person is having a heart attack or needs hospitalization....insurance over the last 50 years has totally messed up our medical system...it used to be affordable to see a doctor for ailments needing attention because insurance (and government) was not involved.

Ted Kennedy started us down this road with the HMOs

Prior to that and HIPPA a fellow could work out a payment plan with a side of beef or shingling a roof. Those things are verboten now and administrators will decide what is best for you.
