And they know it! With no competition they can pretty well charge what they damn well please. ObamaCare does nothing in regards to controlling costs and that is why cost id increasing in every state.

When I retired in 2010, I was paying 10K a year with 5K deductible. I couldn't afford to retire and found a job with health benefits. I am hoping to retire when I can collect Medicare. From what I am hearing, Medicare payments are going up as well.

I just got my subscriber's certificate for next year along with a note that premiums will be increasing. Lots of changes and they are not good and rules are more complicated.

One that I know of is that they will no longer pay for health club dues as the doctor recommend a health lifestyle. They are cutting back on preventive medicine.
