Yep, and that’s just the copays for actually using the insurance. That doesn’t even count the monthly cost of insurance even if you do nothing. I’ve spent years never using mine because I couldn’t afford anyrhing beyond perhaps the basic copay for a visit.
I have good coverage provided by work for me only, which wouldn’t cost me anything, and is not common for people.
Add my family at the base and its good, but now a few hundred a month.
Add them to a level thats appropriate (considering kids, meds I need, stuff my wife needs, etc) and its an order of magnitude more expensive, but comes out cheaper than out of pocket for just those bits.
For my wife’s PT, I received a recent bill of $5300. Insurance reduced to $1100. I owed the copay.
That said, just for PT for my wife, I’m past your cap every month of the year, and I pay extra for the coverage I have.
Yeah its bad.

Oh definitely.
