    I don’t desperately need medical care, but my heart burns for anyone who does rn.

    I received a message that my “so cheap it was basically free” plan will be 400$ a month starting in 2026. I’m going to call in on monday to tell them to cancel it.

    People will die because of this as a direct result.

      Here’s the thing: you don’t get to pick when you need medical care.

        Mood as someone who never thought abt breaking a bone. I broke my collarbone this month and now owe $600 in medical expenses. I was barely keeping up with my monthly premium bill at $60. So yeah my insurance is going from $60 to $160 with the removal of the advanced tax credits to my plan, I have no idea what to do except not break another bone and cancel my plan.
