The survey found the biggest financial worries among people with so-called high-deductible plans that require patients to pay a big chunk of their medical bills each year before insurance kicks in.

Hello?!?! This is NOT understood already???? I don't get the screenings & preventative care because I can't afford it. I have quite the disdain for the healthcare community which is sad because I work for an M.D.!
I'd like to stop hearing doctor's complain about such high overhead costs when they are all living high on the hog!!!!
Some people only look at the monthly premium when they choose a plan. Besides the deductible, you have to check the out of pocket maximum. Some of them are exorbitant and is one reason people get in over their heads in medical debt.
OK 12:57 - I'll keep searching for the plan that covers all that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
