Last year the cost to insure my family went up 40%, our co-pays for doc visits went from $10 to $25, and our rx co-pay went to $20. This year, HR is STOKED because our premiums are "only" going to rise 26%.
I'd appreciate a Christmas card from the FSA families that my extra premiums are paying for. If this keeps happening people in my company will start opting out of the company plan, because they won't be able to afford coverage. When that happens, my premiums will skyrocket
Of course this is all by design-pretty soon I won't be able to afford private health insurance.
Oh yeah, my doc of fifteen years and two of her partners are getting out of medicine entirely in the next couple of years. Medicare paying pennies on the dollar is killing their practice now, and it is about to get exponentially worse
