Hm, you may be right about the pregnancy costs, but if your health insurance is subsidized through work, then it's definitely cheaper to have health insurance than not to. We just had a baby and we were billed over $10,000 just for delivery including stay and other misc stuff. That doesn't include all the doctor office visits we had before. When we didn't have jobs and weren't married, I believe her health insurance was around $1000 a month for full coverage with pregnancy coverage, so you could be right. So, I have no point really. <br> <br> I pay about $3000 per year for family medical insurance through my company. They covered 80% of our delivery costs. Hm... may be worth checking out how much "catastrophic" coverage would cost us for a family. Then pay everything else out of pocket. <br> <br> I agree with Neil though, people need to be more responsible for their own health care.
