Re: Affordable Care Act - catastrophic plans cancelled

Re: Affordable Care Act - catastrophic plans cancelled

Re: Affordable Care Act - catastrophic plans cancelled

I like to think of sailors as freedom-loving "I can take care of myself" type people. In this whole discussion, I would like to learn ways to apply these principles to the health care needs that I...

Re: Affordable Care Act - catastrophic plans cancelled

Mark, without having any real data, my belief is that our legal system in the US is the vampire who is sucking the lifeblood out of our healthcare system...any data on that? All players in US...

Re: Affordable Care Act - catastrophic plans cancelled

Something I'm very curious about...maybe you world travelers could chip in...do other countries have as big of a problem with resistant strains as we do in the US? Things like MRSA...

Re: Affordable Care Act - catastrophic plans cancelled

Well, I always figured that since we pay these outlandishly high rates for medicine and services here in the US that it was going toward R&D. Of course, we do have these outrageous legal costs...
