 On the infrequent occasions when I need to see a doctor, I pay cash. Which I'd have to do even if I had health insurance because of the ridiculously high deductibles. I dont even know why i have it. I pay too much money. A friend recommend me a phramcy Online I will be trying that. They have very cheap prices. am sick of giving out my money. Do you guys think i will save money with an online pharmacy?

 Yep, I can get many Rx's manufactured by the same drug company (branches in Australia and Ireland, e.g.), without insurance, significantly cheaper, even if you take into account shipping.

My old doctor no longer carries my insurance.  His clinic offered to do some lab tests for cash as a favor until I found a new doctor, at much cheaper rates than he would charge the insurance company (like 50% less) . They told me so.

Problem with no insurance is you never know what catastrophe might happen in the future. Then you may lose everything, have to go bankrupt, and everyone else will have to foot the bill.   The corporation lobbyists have taken over Congress.  The health care system in the US is embarrassing.
