I don't mind telling anyone that I do carry only a hospitalization plan, with a $5000.00 deductable attached to it and I pay $487.00 per month and every time I have a birthday, which is soon, it goes up at least $24.00 and I have had this policy forever and never used it (knock on wood), but still you have to have something, just in case.  I do look forward to about two more years and maybe I will get by with a supplement, unless the Democrats, mess with the age 65 (lol).  I am thankful, I can still pay this premiun every month, but how long will I be able to pay it !
