If that isn’t enough, and I have doubts it will be, because it was all in post #13 which you evidently ignored.

If your really energetic , go to the bottom of the link, there’s 19 cite/links that you can browse thru at your leisure.
Yes, I ignored your source, which is why I qualified my statement with "Unless I missed something...", which represents my acknowledgment that I may be in error.

Your souce does not identify what the policy covered. The average family may be taking what I am calling to much coverage. Your souce does not *only* represent "catastrophic coverage" (= high out-of-pocket and co-pay, low monthly premium).

Unless the average person in chronicly ill, the average person does not need more than catastrophic coverage. "Oh ****" insurance.
