[quote=Anonymous]I really don't know how you all do it. I need a mammogram. E-mailed a clinic in EU (my friends are checking a few more clinic for me) and will get it done for $200. Tickets to EU are $500 and I get to see my family.
The clinic wrote 170 euroes two times to make sure I noticed the 'high cost'.
The only reason I'm paying for a health plan in US I won't even use, is to avoid DC fine. It's $630 a month and I guard my insurance card more than my SS number or credit cards. I want nobody to have it and nobody to use it.
Now I got a HSA debit card in the mail that I will never use or even activate. It might accrue a fee even if I don't activate it.
My kid inherited an HSA. We were told that the person who passed away should have logged into the account to get the tax documents or the minor child who inherited it.
After I called and they promised to send out the tax documents, they still didn't. Why do I even want to go near an HSA. It's not a triple tax savings/advantage for us. Nobody considers that some of don't benefit from it because of our low tax expense. HSA is pain for us.
If I offer to pay cash and not use my insurance, I'm turned down by a doctor or get several bills after I leave the office. Doesn't matter if I ask for the final bill over and over again and record it all. 
Once we got a bill for dentist we paid 2 years earlier. Luckily it was on credit card. I have so many stories of extra bills and we only go for yearly check ups for the kid. I skip some of mine.
Dealing with the health care in US will kill me, not any disease.
