Today was the start of open enrollment at my company (US) for insurance and it has reminded me just how painful it is to think about what a scam health insurance is in my country.
I had heard that if you want something done right, do it yourself. So, to that end…
Health Insurance Cooperatives.
Is that a thing?
I live in the Pacific Northwest and I would think that if anywhere had such a thing it would be here (I’m biased, of course).
I’d love to hear people’s thoughts and experiences on the subject.
Anything to avoid forking over my (or me employer’s) money to the medical-industrial complex to make some assholes rich.

Yes. There are religious ones. They have terrible reputations. Cost sharing ministries, or something.
Yeah, here’s a Last Week Tonight about them
I’ll watch this later, but woof. It’s not looking good already 😂
Yeah, I got around to watching this finally. OOF. No thank you ✋
