I am still insured with my company. The company plan is fabulous. I'd be surprised if it survives ObamaCare. My OOP is $1,600 in network and $3,600 out of network. The policy is nationwide. So, I can visit anywhere and not worry too much. Under ObamaCare what then?

Add $1k to your in network OOP and you have the plan we have through Dec 31 of this year.

Our new plan is a horror story.

Consumer spending will absolutely crater over this.

Depends on which OCare compliant policy you buy. Some offer only in network coverage (and some networks cover only one county), some offer in network and out of network emergency coverage, and some offer in network at one rate and out of network at another. I would imagine the nationwide companies would cover you around the country, but I’ll bet the West Lubbock Clinic Health Plan doesn’t. OOP’ll go up, because that’s now a potentially unlimited payout for the insurance company, and the premium’s most likely to be higher so you can help pay for Sandra Fluke’s friend’s social life.
