Re: The PPACA Thread Part IV - Repeal & Replace, or Something...
I'll say "Bill Gates".
He has "health coverage"; it's his check book.
There's no treatment he could need that he can't pay directly.
I picked the extreme in Gates.
There are many, many, many others that realistically only need a true catastrophic insurance coverage plan as they can provide their own coverage for most expenses.
This "self-cover" most things, plus an insurance policy for just the catastrophic, major-medical stuff, the HSA model, is the model I thought we were moving toward as a nation.
