15. I'm going into private practice

Where I will be making much, much more than I was making in a community mental health clinic. I am purchasing a silver plan.

My previous insurance was unusually good. The clinic had a high-deductible HSA medical and dental insurance, but every month they gave us enough so that at the end of the year, they would have given us the entire deductible ($3000). Therefore, we could always count upon fantastic coverage without paying a single penny out of pocket ever except small copays.

When I compare my current insurance to that, of course it fell short. That was Paradise. Freaking Paradise. Did I mention at the clinic not make us pay for the insurance? If you work in healthcare, good insurance in a clinical setting is the norm.

Thank you for your concern.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
