Re: Cinergy Health
Cinergy Health use to offer only discount medical plans. Last year they started offering limited medical plans. That's the advertising that you are probably referring to. Limited medical plans are like stripped-down major medical plans with no deductibles, and they are a lot less expensive. The plans are great for people on very limited budgets and need just basic health insurance.

Re: Cinergy Health
The deductible is meaningless in the real world and the premiums are not normally much lower vs. a traditional major medical plans. All that matters is the OOPM for in- and out-of-network coverage and caps on services.
Furthermore, if somebody wants coverage for catastrophic coverage and wants to keep their premium down they should buy a HSA.
Limited benefit plans should only be used AFTER researching individual or group plan and AFTER any Federal or State plans have been analyzed.

Yeah, not a good plan. Hope the big one doesn't come.

Re: Cinergy Health
I don't agree. Generally speaking, I think we can agree that anybody who can afford a major medical (high deductible or otherwise) should go for it. But for the 40 million people who make less than $40,000 a year and have three kids, limited medical plans like this offer an opportunity to get the kids to the doctors office and emergency room with no OOP expense.

Wonder...good point, but invariably, the consumer thinks they have a much better plan they they actually have.
