I'm a fugitive on the run
Chased by men armed with guns
I owe a fat cat 800 grand
Such a crime will not stand
If you want to live a life that's free
Don't download that d*** CD!

Unfortunately, that's what these companies do.

Okay, let say that you are my insurance company. We sign a contract. I pay you $700/month so that you help me if something happens. I go see the doctor once a year for ten years without being sick. The doctor visit without insurance (including blood work, pressure check,etc)cost me $300. The doctor finds that nothing's wrong with me. With co pay it cost me $90 and $210 for you (insurance company).
$210x10 years = $2100 to you - $84000 i gave you over a ten year period. Your profit is $81900. One day I get sick and go to the hospital, stay for 8 days,etc and end up costing $40000 total.
I pay $12000 out of it and you pay $28000.
You still made a profit of $56000. Now I have a pre existing condition (UC in my case) which will cost $300 doctor visit + $3000 colonoscopy + $1800 for meds per year. Total = $5100. I pay $1530 you pay $3570.
I gave you $8400, you payed $3570, you still get $4830 profit per year.
So the little lost in profit would justify you to commit a crime against me (breaking our contract)?

You forgot an important detail. The ridiculous cost of medication is also a factor in those inflated prices. The same medication you can get in Canada for 1/5 of the price.
But now the news are trying to fright us about fake medication. That's BS! They just don't want people to buy the meds at the normal price. I'm from Canada so I know about the price difference.
The insurance company is suppose to insure someone, not drop them if they get sick! They take a risk by insuring us the same way we take a risk by giving away our money for safety purpose. I've been kicked out by my insurance company because, shame on me, I had to be sick. I didn't chose to be but I was. Now I'm struck with a garbage policy and thanks to Obama, they couldn't refuse me. But it's still a crappy insurance.
