    So true! As a European in one of many countries with universal healthcare, I truly feel sorry for Americans. 30 million of whom have no healthcare at all. Those who do are stuck with useless high deductible plans designed to make you pay most of the yearly costs with your own money. I have literally seen Americans right here on KZread literally pulling their own teeth with pliers, because they don't have dental insurance. As a matter of constructive criticism I think the American people have to demand a change. The problem is they are (by design it seems) focused on trivial matters, like conflict with LGBT/ trans etc.. While the real issues effecting the whole country are brushed under the rug. So.... apparently there is no money for universal heathcare in the U.S.. Yet, they can pull out a whopping 60 billion to fund an uinwinnable war in Ukraine? Americans don't know that in the rest of the world healthcare is not a luxury afforded to the privileged. It is a human right afforded to all. Even some developing countries have a form of universal heathcare, like Brazil and South Africa.

    If you are generally healthy (no major or chronic issues), live a low-risk lifestyle (minimal accidents, tears, fractures, breaks), and are responsible with your saving (to have savings to cover high copay and premium) consider the HDHP paired with an HSA. If you are concerned with high deductibles but still want flexibility to see specialists at will without the oversight of a primary doctor, try PPO. If you are bad with saving or extremely frugal and don't mind having the oversight of your primary doctor who can tell you where you can/can't go or what procedures you can/can't get, try HMO.

    Great video........enrolling in medical benefits with a new employer right now! If you're needing to see multiple specialists in various domains, PPO is definitely the way to go since you can avoid continuous primary doctor co-pays by being forced to go through them as you would with the HMO plan. HMO is nice for those in small communities that generally stick to a doctor and don't require much outside of routine checks and tests. I love the flexibility of getting second opinions and not paying double co-pays, think I'll go for the PPO myself.

  • @oeg1612

    I think both are expensive either way, I just started my new job and hmo is ridiculously expensive here in nevada for me and my kids i paid 50 dollar less at my prior job for ppo which i prefer i dont like hmo because you have to go get referrals for everything I like the flexibility of ppo. Also it depends on the company you work for the jobs at the las vegas strip which is union way better only 60 per check for the entire family and co pays arent that bad either.

    Why do we put up with this? Some insurance companies are getting upwards of 70% of their income from tax dollars collected by the government, and given to them to "help" provide health care to the citizens. But we STILL have to pay premiums and deductibles to them, while they do everything in their power to keep from paying for the healthcare we've already paid for in multiple ways. PLUS, even if you're paying your taxes, you're not guaranteed to have insurance (outside of Medicare/Medicaid), as "The Affordable Healthcare Act (Obamacare) has a list of reasons for exemptions from having heath insurance. Eliminate the Insurance Middlemen, and then FAR MORE of our money comes back to us, and not into people collecting our taxes as bonuses for NOT providing us the healthcare we've paid for multiple times.

    In-network refers to physicians and medical establishments that deliver patient services covered under the insurance plan. In-network providers are generally the cheapest option for policyholders. Insurance companies typically have negotiated lower rates with in-network providers. Out-of-network refers to physicians and medical establishments not covered under your insurance plan. Services from out-of-network providers are usually more expensive than those rendered by in-network providers. This is because out-of-network providers have not negotiated lower rates with your insurer. Links with more info about healthcare www.healthcare.gov/glossary/ www.kff.org/
