Here's my little saga with #HealthInsurance....

When I retired from my job back in 2022 I was given the option to keep my current health insurance provided by the Company.

Of course since I was no longer an active employee this basically meant I had never-ending #COBRA.

$980.00 a month for just me. Single. No dependents. That was #Credence #BlueCrossBlueShield of Georgia. And my Company (a large electric utility) was actually self-insured. Credence/ #BCBS just managed the #healthcare #plan.

That didn't last long. So I got an insurance plan from the Healthcare #Exchange.

Turns out Georgia has really really shitty healthcare plans on the exchange.

Ended up going BACK to my Company's health insurance for 2023.

Then I moved to #NewMexico (after stopping off in #SouthDakota for a bit).

Turns out none of the doctors I wanted to see out here accepted #CredenceBCBS.

So I signed up with a local health insurance plan out here in New Mexico. #Presbyterian. I wanted to see Presbyterian doctors so I figured if anything Presbyterian would accept their own insurance.

At least it was cheaper. $750 a month as opposed to $980.

That's what I did for 2024. And I had to pay $750 because I was technically not a New Mexico resident for most of 2024.

But now I am.

And turns out based on my income now (which isn't much) I qualify for some amazing subsidies.

My same Presbyterian insurance for 2025 is going to cost me $127 a month. I could even get it down to $21 a month but that means I have more of a yearly cap for things.

I wish nothing more that we had #SinglePayer healthcare. Something like the #UK's #NHS.

#Republicans have raped and pillaged the poor and the working class in this Country non-stop since 1980, all the while giving the spoils to their fat-cat donors and billionaire buddies.

Republicans are the absolute worst thing about the United States.
