"http://www.fchp.org"

My plan is as follows:

Cost: $164/month or $1986 per year
Pre-existing conditions? NO, nada, never - not even my Congestive Heart Failure
Full Coverage Day One: YES!
Co-Pay: $60 for a cardiologist visit
Cancellation? No, never, not for any reason ever. I will never lose my coverage. Period.
Telephone Customer Service? OUTSTANDING
Quality of medical care? OUTSTANDING++

Honestly, any American who pays much more than $2000 per year for top shelf medical care is a chump who deserves to be taken advantage of. And I like you too much to let you be a chump. If Fallon doesn't work for you then I am sure we can find a similar deal where you live. I know because I had no trouble finding a wide range of excellent and affordable private health plans to choose from. I went with Fallon only because of the cardiac clinic. So it is simply impossible that we both live in the same country and yet I pay a fraction of what you pay. Especially since I am sicker now than you will probably ever be in your whole life! Pick up the damned phone and switch companies! It is ludicrous that my heart should cost so much less than your hip! YOU ARE BEING ROBBED!
No offence there Janus, but you're either getting your medical care from a Cub Scout or your stated price per month is your share of your unions medical coverage. To have a reasonable plan in the USA, you'll pay $18k/yr. for a small family plan. That gives you most Dr.'s of your choice. The only way to do it cheaper is to be illegal, then of course, it's free; for the illegals. $2000/ yr. won't buy squat for medical insurance.
