lol do you guys seriously still have deductibles with the affordable care act? God I feel for you guys sometimes.

What I especially love is that providers charge a much higher price if you use insurance. A $100 procedure becomes a $1000 procedure if you try to use insurance to pay for it. Then your insurance says "sorry, you haven't reached your deductible", and the provider bills you the full amount.
