The most expensive plan on my state's marketplace. Honestly, I'm going to have to start selling myself, or my body parts, to be able to afford this shit.

but instead of federal buildings its going to be health insurance companies.

I like how it still includes token fees for daring to use your health insurance that costs more than I make in a year. If they don't get that $10 on primary care visits, they might go bankrupt. And don't you even think about seeing a dentist for a $100 cleaning. That would absolutely ruin them.

No dental or vision on this plan, sorry.

But $20 cardiology visits when your teeth rot out and it inflames your heart. Only $100 per ER trip when it leads to dementia and you wander away from your home because you can't afford a nursing home that also costs this much. Plus rewards.

They'll pay $10k for a simple surgery, but refuse to cover a $1,000 tooth emergency. Or any dental really. 'Luxury bones'. That you pay seperate 'insurance' for but that insirance refuses to cover jack shit.

That's too science-y for us.
