My company does that. They use BCBS of Il to administer the plan using BCBS standards for payment. Premiums are charged based on what was required the prior year. The money is collected from our paychecks and put in to what is actually a trust. BCBS administers the plan for a modest fee. At the end of the year if there is a surplus then premiums are reduced for the next year. If there is a shortage then premiums are raised. There is no profit to my company. BCBS makes a reasonable contract fee. I have myself, my wife, and my 2 college age children on the family plan. It cost 480 a month. Last year it was 510 a month. My company pays about 750 per month for their share. This year they changed it per law so that my 2 adult children in college are covered till they are 26. It used to terminate when they graduated at 22 or 23.

Everyone makes a big deal about the fraud in some Medicare/Medicaid claims. Well it happens in all types of insurance. Every carrier has a large SIU unit that investigates insurance fraud. Every time I have some kind of procedure the insurance company follows up with a questionnaire to verify that what the doctor or hospital did was legitimate. When Medicaid does the same thing they are accused of wasting money on unneeded oversight.

The party of NO needs to get it together. Health care reform is just plain old common sense.

No surprise: This progressive ignors the subject of the thread.

Surprise: This progressive is actually employed and has multiplied. Yikes!

Hey, look at one of his recent posts whining about something being 'disgusting'. I didn't even open it, cause I figured it was more left-wing cultist crap. This moron wouldn't know 'disgusting' if it bit him...LOL.

703, you know this guy's just a flamer. A pretender. Some 50-something in his mother's basement. The far-left owns this toolbag (gee, what a deal for them ).

For some one who claims to be a christian, and uses God in his screen name, you sure have a kaka mouth. You don't read posts yet you can critize them. You are a sad unhappy person, I feel sorry for you.

God has forgiven your transgressions. I'm not God. Lucky you.

Kaka mouth?

That's right Bottom. My 2 biological children are already way past you in their ability to process information.

Unlike you they would have seen that I was responding to the post before mine. By the way. Most Progressives are employed and well educated. The unemployed and under educated tend to be right wing. If they were educated they would understand that you shouldn't vote against your best interest.

I can't get my computer to turn up the volume. I like the way you group everyone Bottom. I don't advocate living off the backs of others. I'm just a little more Christ like than you. Yes I believe in Jesus Christ. I just don't believe he was the son of a non existent entity. So when people ask you WWJD? I bet it really stumps you. You just can't think at that level of empathy. No the world doesn't owe me a thing. No I don't call all the white pubs racist. I do call anyone I think is racist a racist. I have 5 adopted kids that are other than white. So I don't have much use for small minded people. Something else that might surprise you. I have never watched MSNBC. Bet you can't say the same about FOX. You're probably watching it right now.

And the best response you can scrabble together--you think it would be quite successful. One problem there sherlock--with the feds calling the shots, whatever administrator is administrating, means absolutely nothing. They dance to the tune that the fed want to play and since too many of those within the fed are hyper sensitive to pressures from the their lobbiest masters, the end result is always the same--bankruptcy. The best example--the post office--years ago a study on making the dept. solvent laid out some basic and specific reforms to make, which immediately ran up against the unions. And what resulted--nothing--the losing ways of the post office are still on a fast track and represents the mirror of every other fed program that is equally as shoddy and mismanaged.

And dismissing the fraud that is the norm within all industries completely ignores the fraud that is the federal government. Just remember--the master himself even said he could eliminate half a trillion $ in fraud and waste in medicare alone. Couple his latest admission with the same fraud and waste in the irs, the post office, medicaid, the veterans admin.,the nea, hud, the dept. of education, the defense dept, the epa, oh he-ll--every single dept. within the federal government and there wouldn't be the need for obama to bankrupt the nation and break the back of the real taxpayers. But we all know that he gave 95% of the american people a tax cut last year--his own admission--again. Is that 95% of the 50% that actually do pay taxes or is it 95% of the 50% that don't, or if possible, is it--both?
