So you think "SWEET, insurance I can afford!" They say "it doesn't cover everything but it's cheap"

You think "well, it's for a few months, what could go wrong" Then you have an accident Then you realize you are buying someone a new car

Because the insurance did not, in fact, cover a whole lot of things, but you didn't want to or know how to read the coverage. #mepolitics

This is why the ACA has "essential benefits" because raise your hand if you've ever read everything your insurance does and does not cover.

Ok, now raise your hand if you've read *anything* your insurance covers. No, you in the back, that was the premium sheet. #mepolitics

In my experience, most people care about what is covered only when their coverage is denied. It's complicated. It's hard to read #mepolitics

And it's really, really boring. REALLY boring. They don't even include photos of the cysts they may or may not drain. #mepolitics

(Big brother watches you click that Dr. Pimple Popper link) It's also critically important to know what is covered. #mepolitics
