How do you comparsion shop for routine health care services?

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010
ConsumerAdvocate asked:


I have a high-deductible health plan and would like to make the most out of my health care dollars by comparison shopping for prices. What tools do other consumers use to look up prices and find the best value. My health plan does not provide very good price transparency tools so I need to rely on other sources.

Aren’t those with private health insurance already paying for the care of others?

Monday, April 26th, 2010
oimwoomwio asked:


The whole theory of insurance is that a large group pays in every month while they are healthy so that those few who get sick can get care when they need it.

That means that you are already paying for other peoples health care.

How is that any different from having a national plan that takes care of sick citizens while taking a portion in taxes from each worker?

Private insurers generally pay out 60-65 cents of each dollar collected in benefits. National providers pay more like 90-95 cents on the dollar.

Can anybody clear this up for me?

Susiepolls2008 asked:


Does anyone think that Lieberman will support the health care plan at the end of the day. After Lieberman backed McCain not Obama in the presidential election.
