28. how different is this new Federal pool? Those that can afford its obscenely
expensive premiums, copays, deductibles will get care, and those who don't have the thousands sitting around won't get the coverage. That's NO CHANGE. In my state, for a $500 deductible premium, it costs $480/month, that's with a $2500 out of pocket payment, and the plan only covers 80% after reaching the out of pocket limit. Of course that's with in-plan providers only, and the administrator is, guess who??? Blue Cross. What a waste of money, even if you could afford it!

For those who can't afford these new plans, NADA, no change. Thanks for nothing!!!

Who won? Blue Cross.

My state boasted on its pool website that a total of 4 people had signed up! That ain't change!
