I work at a large, private university health system.
Annual up front cost for insurance is $4967 for medical insurance and $609 for dental. Those cover me, my wife, and two of my three children. The insurance is a plan funded by my employer, but managed by Independence Blue Cross, AKA “Personal Choice”.
There are three “tiers” of coverage.
First tier is for facilities that are part of my employer. Generally, for procedures performed at my employer’s facility there is no additional charge. For a primary care provider who is part of my health system, there would be a $20 copay per visit. Specialist would also be $20, and an ER visit would be $200.
There is an “in network” tier, made up of external providers that accept personal choice. Primary care copay is $35, specialist is $50, ER $200.
The third tier is “out of network”. If we see someone out of network, we would have to pay them directly, then try to get partial reimbursement from insurance.
There’s also a prescription plan, but we get a discount by using the hospital’s outpatient pharmacy.
Everyone always talks about the cost to give birth. All three of my kids were born at the hospital where I work, and none of the births cost us any additional money.
Edit: if it were actually a commercial, it would be the best commercial ever created.
Good thing I’m not a conservative so I don’t have to shave with that piece of crap.
DE for me!
not the name of the software/company, but rather some sort of advanced DDOS-like attack
As we’ve discovered, both can be true.
On Friday, as we were running around the hospital where we work trying to get every computer working again, we were following the work-around to rename the Crowdstrike folder under C:\Windows\system32\drivers to “bad-CrowdStrike”.
When my coworker was typing the rename command, instead of typing “cro TAB”, he started typing “clo TAB”. He’d ask me why it wasn’t finding it, and I’d point out the typo.
I started saying, it’s not “CloudStrike”, it’s “CrowdStrike”.
By the end of the day, we were both a little loopy. I started typing “CloudStrike”, and cursing him out for screwing with my head. By the end of the day I wasn’t sure what it was either.
CloudStrike
CrownStrike
ClownStrike
It occurred to us that CrowdStrike is an absolutely terrible name. It sounds like a terrorist attack. Of course, it felt like one on Friday.
You have to separate boy guinea pigs at 4 weeks of age to keep them from impregnating their mom and sisters.
Biden could probably win by promising to resign after Inauguration Day. I think the devils we know are making the devil we don’t know look attractive.
You’re just not killing enough people. At some point the heirs decide to give it all away.
You’re also assuming she gets 8 hours of work a day at her normal rate. It’s not like she’s salaried.
I think it would be more useful to dramatically increase taxes on unoccupied or AirBnB properties. Increase penalties on slumlord behavior. Similar things to gently (or not so gently) discourage people from hoarding residential real estate.
Otherwise, if someone was renting my house and they wanted to buy it at $100/month, it would probably take more than 800 years to buy (if I could afford to get it into shape to maximize the appraisal).
No, the Conservative mindset is, “I imagine that I suffered to get where I am after a small million dollar loan from Daddy, everyone should suffer like I imagine I did even if they didn’t get free money from Daddy.”
With me, my wife, and three kids, laundry was a whole day even with the washer and dryer.
do you expect me to slither around on my scrotum
Not with that attitude.
They only answer I’d ever give.

I’m sure we could beat that.
