It is rather disappointing paying for what amounts to catastrophic insurance. I'm already in the "bills that would destroy me" mode, after suffering a heart attack that left me with three stents and six days in the ICU, all while uninsured. I can't keep my head above water trying to repay any of that monstrous debt while at the same time trying to pay new higher premiums with double the deductibles and no affordable copays, only 50% co-insurance after the deductibles are met.
