I have a prescription plan.......but that donut hole trumps that. I'll be glad if and when it closes. But most of Obamacare is about delay and pushing dates back. I still pay less for Medicare, Plan friend and prescriptions than I was paying privately prior to going on Medicare.
We have an insurance broker. He researched our needs and our meds and did a fine job on the referrals. We have referred several people to him.

bbsm,
I do support Obamacare, just not in it's current state. Everyone should have adequate healthcare and it shouldn't come down to how much money they have. When this bill first came about I jumped for joy because I watched two of my good older friends die without healthcare because of chronic conditions and were uninsurable. Sadly this whole Obamacrap has turned into a joke.
People should not be forced to have insurance if they don't want it. If you want it, great! Have it without worries of whether or not you have to pay your rent or your heath insurance. Now the people that are young and healthy are paying higher premiums/deductibles for people that are older and sick. Does something seem wrong with this picture?
Most people in the industry want healthcare for everyone, but not this way. Brokers that have been helping people for years are leaving. BTW, I don't really do the exchange stuff. Medicare is the only part of insurance that hasn't been touched so far by Obama. So far...

At least this year the TROOP (true out of pocket) costs will go down. In 2014 it goes to 52.5% discount on brand name and 28% of generic. If all else fails, you can also ask the brand name company for help with prescriptions.
Good luck more.

We get discounts . generics, Canadian, etc. Your 'hole' is still figured at the high rate and you reach the limit real fast!!
For example (not far off true) A monthly prescription that might cost $325 and I can get it for $75.......my total on the donut hole gets $325 added to it !......That just doesn't seem fair to me.
Anyway, thanks for the 'good luck'.

I never knew that he may have possibly been misquoted. Leaving off the "a" before "man" makes a huge difference in the meaning of what he was trying to say.
That being said, either version of the quote still disproves her theory that all quotes are taken out of context.
Universal, single payer healthcare for all!

Because the microphone didn't catch it, but right before that he said ,"damn, that was the Mexican MRE I ate last night" as he farted on the step down.

If the man says words before and after in his lifetime, the quote is taken apart from the whole body of life words..

I have to wonder how many of those records were the results of circumstances inherited from his predecessor which were beyond his control. It's not as though things were all sunshine and rainbows on 1/20/09.
BTW, the debt and unemployment numbers have been steadily decreasing while the GDP has been steadily increasing during the Obama presidency.
