I had marketplace health insurance last year. The coverage was so bad and deductibles so high, I didn't go to the doctor at all last year...even when I should have. The ACA is deeply flawed legislation and we should be working to create coverage that is usable.

There is definitely some good in the ACA, but for self-employed above the income threshold, it's horrible. Our premiums were around $900/mo and even if you went for the "free" well-visit, if you discussed anything the visit was hundreds of dollars.

I think we ended spending $15-20k last year on medical, and no one was deathly or broken. Few enough sick visits for one hand and my husband turned 40 so a few tests.

Weird. Our ACA coverage has family max annual out of pocket expense at less than $6000. But we do support universal health care/single payer.

It's not particularly weird. If you are paying $3/mo, you have subsidies and cost sharing to cap the out of pocket maximums at lower levels than those who do not have a subsidy.
