aaaand then I dream about it, and wake up at 3 am with an epiphany as to how it could be done. Too bad it never works for my own projects...

ngl, I love hearing the rest of the world, it gives perspective into what we're doing well, what we're doing poorly, and what's downright fucked up

How much do Americans actually pay for healthcare? in c/[email protected]
[–] Nyanix 34 points 6 months ago (3 children)

I work for one of the largest healthcare providers in the US. I pay $450/mo for health insurance. This is not including vision, dental, or money I set aside for FSA (a pre-tax savings account restricted for use for paying for healthcare) and for and HRA (similar to FSA, but intended for when you're older, and our company partially matches our contributions). The FSA has been refusing to pay for legitimate doctor visits that insurance has sanctioned. I pay out of pocket for a lot of procedures that the insurance ducks, such as laser eye surgery, vasectomy or even for birth control pills prior to the vasectomy.

The laser eye surgery was ~$5,000 out of pocket, the vasectomy was ~$2,000.

I had a visit to the ER - I was driven by my partner to avoid ambulance costs, and with insurance, had to pay $450 only for the doctors to stay they couldn't figure out what was wrong and I end back up there later that week for another $450.

I was in a car crash a few years ago and my medical costs (again, with insurance) came out to ~$250,000.

This is while making $85,000/yr working as a Senior IT Engineer, and paying $2,700/mo for rent.

Generally speaking, with insurance, we're probably paying about twice as much for any given situation, but insurance itself is also expensive and likes to dodge paying for as much as possible.

Multiple 15-hour days, working from 5 AM to 8 PM. I work in healthcare, so it was essential to get most of these servers back online as soon as possible
