    Uh..its like 1/5 the price for me, so I think you are being a git disingenuous by breaking it down to the lowest point. I think the statement would be that people who carried insurance that wasn't just a catastrophic plan would find that coverage would be cheaper because people paying nothing were gaming the system is a more accurate way to put it. If you paid nothing and have to pay something, as pointed out above, then yes you will need to change your lifestyle.

    Until this new system, nobody was given the information on how much of their bill was going to cover people who just didn't have anything. Now that I know it was ~$1100 a month, its not okay for me to complain that I want my $1100 back and have equal weight to the people bitching about $700 coming out of their pockets?

    I guess the solution is simple: Create a medical group that hospitals and providers can join along with customers who flat out refuse care to anyone not in their network and those who don't have an insurance plan through them. That way all costs are inclusive of the member base and are required to even have a band-aid applied.
