[QUOTE="jayem, post: 61087022, member: 8344"] Why should I pay more for my insurance because some people won't buy their own? Everyone needs insurance for catastrophic illness. Because no matter how young and healthy you are, you can still contract a serious disease or suffer a life-threatening injury. That's what most expensive to treat. And even if you work out a discounted payment plan with the hospital, part of your costs will be built into the fees charged to other paying patients. Cost shifting seems to be inherent in our current health care system. And unless you want to go down the road of government price controls, I know of no regulatory fix for it. [/QUOTE]
