I pay $400 per month for my employer-subsidized (but not by much!) health plan. My son, at age 23, has “aged out” of the company plan, but he’s now insured on a $90/month plan through Blue Cross.
As a Navy retiree, I also have Tricare, formerly known as “CHAMPUS”. It’s a farce. Tricare pays about 15 cents on the dollar of claims. (Between Tricare and the company plan, I guess we’re OK.)
I’m convinced that there ARE major savings to be wrung out of the costs of health care – and that the government is PRECISELY the wrong people to do it!
