Yesterday I did a Voyage Clinics Podcast with an health insurance agent Dennis Walker. He gave me some important health insurance updates. I've also seen some of you posting here about the higher prices of insurance for less coverage.
For a "good" insurance plan the average family (young healthy) is charged $1300-$2800 per month ("and that's on the low end" he said). This plan still comes with a high deductible of $3k/family member with a higher family max-out-of-pocket. This plan will then increase by 8-12% annually but only if you remain healthy (otherwise more). It's total crap!
As a family physician I've been working to fix the broken sickcare system for 8 years at my clinic. I've built a great preventative focused team that's available when you need it most. We truly promote Health and Care 😊 with our affordable membership (roughly 10-15% of the cost of insurance). I believe that if we align our efforts we can change the construct of our sickcare system to a real healthcare system. I also believe we can work together to bring affordable healthcare and insurance coverage to local families and companies.
We cannot wait for government or current insurance companies to fix this situation. We need to bring down the cost of both care and coverage. We need to work together. Join the movement. We work for you.
