Podcasts about health insurance plans

WE NEED TO LEGALIZE CATASTROPHIC HEALTH INSURANCE PLANS FOR EVERYONE If we could do this ONE THING your health insurance life would be so much better and cheaper than it is now. Catastrophic health plans, those that don't kick in until you hit a pretty high deductible, are available, but only to people under 30 who show financial hardship. That's the law for Obamacare and in this column my pal Steve Moore explains that it needs to be available for EVERYONE who wants to buy it. Y'all, if you could buy this plan and then do a Direct Primary Care plan your lif would change. You'd have a better quality of healthcare with the comfort of knowing big stuff is covered. Why won't Democrats let this happen? Because they are trying to condition us for single payer where everything is "free". Steve joins me at 12:30 to discuss.
