Our new Obama Care-less premium for my wife is going to be $14k plus a deductible of $6k. Since there are so few choices here in Maine (the insurance companies are pulling out of Obama Care-less like rats leaving a ship), we are investigating Medi Share. Do any of you folks have experience with this product? Many thanks!
My family has been using it for a little over two years. We have never actually used the coverage, because our doctor gives a significant discount for cash pay patients. We primarily use it as catastrophic coverage.
Not only is it dramatically cheaper than our previous coverage, but it provides a free telehealth service which is very convenient.
Provident, My wife reported she talked to your wife. She shared that she hoped she help, but added your wife was frustrated just like my wife's other clients....everybody is pissed at Obammer's no care legacy. Screw the rhinos, those do nothing mouth-breathers.

Yes, indeed the wives spoke, and yours deserves kudos for being kind enough to take the time to share her knowledge. To say that my wife is frustrated with Obama Care-less is an understatement. It has been a nightmare not only because of the $20k+ annual cost, but from just the mechanics of dealing with the Govt (gee, what a shock). The only problem with Medi Share, and it is a really BIG one, is that the largest medical group in Maine, where many of our best doctors are (including ours) does NOT take them. Hard to pay for insurance when you know in advance that you can't use them to pay any bills you might incur. It looks like my wife just won't have any insurance, like 6.5 million other people in our country that are paying the annual fine levied by the wonderful folks at the IRS because they don't have Obama Care-less.
Sorry to hear about your health ins woes. just as a thought...there are starting to spring up dr offices, that do not take ins, but are based on a monthly fee, in our area. One dr I used to work with, he left the office I did claims on, and now has started up his own practice. He only charges approx 65 a month, and labs, tests, are extremely inexpensive. Something that might cost a few hundred dollars now might cost 12 for example. He had a video out on you tube to get his practice info out there. Maybe you could look for something like that?
