A. We have never even exchanged message or emails, let alone referrals
B. I took the time to look up rates in Kansas City for new plans, quoted what was provided, and it came out that you were in your 60's. if you live in an area with a higher community rating then your rate is higher at a younger age, that's pretty straight forward and has nothing to do with health history. My comment about your health history was more based on 'how can you not have health insurance with your health history?'
C. I don't want your referrals and don't need them, I've reached the point where I turn business down sometimes because I have a good sized book and can only support so many.
D. I don't really care what you do, if you think being a health insurance broker means not spending an extra $100 a month on yourself while enrolling other people dealing with the same unfortunate decision, enjoy yourself, I don't work that way.
E. I gave my opinion to a publicly posted thread, if you don't like it then don't post stuff about yourself.
You must care based on the detailed response and simmering anger in your post . . . not sure how you look up rates, but you were incorrect . . . . anyway - thanks for the love . . . .

Then my phone bill is going up 64%.
Cadylou, I have a high deductible HSA, and I'm about your age. My premium was $332 for just me alone, and is going to $535. On a $5,000 deductible HSA ($10k per family)! That is just my portion. I also have a husband and 4 children. Our family premiums are outlandish.
I look at it this way. Thank God I'm not subsidized. I can make enough money to pay the extra premium. Being insured is better than the alternative.
As always Ann, you're right. I'm going to go with an HSA, because anymore it's the ONLY option that makes any sense if you have the ability to fund it. I've been recommending this to clients who are able to fund one as well. But - people still have a right to be really angry about what's happened here. . . . .
