We have the premium and deductible numbers from all 3 plans we can choose from. They are all double-plus premiums from 2014 rates, and the deductibles vary.

I am prescribed HGH because a brain tumor destroyed my pituitary gland. I CANNOT get pricing for the drug, coverage allowances for the drug, nor copays for the drug.

It’s a huge difference between $500 a month and anything else for the cost of Norditropin.

I’ve been on the phone for a week with United, Aetna and Blue Cross Care First, and am promised information, but we’re looking at total annual payments of $12,000 - $17,000 for otherwise healthy man and wife.

I am so mad I could spit.

We were paying $1k a month before Obamacare. It has been going up ever since. In the last couple of days we have gotten notice that hubby’s premiums and mine are both going up an extra $4k a year. We are up to $1400 per mnth now for 2 realatively healthy seniors.
