Yep, it's a bare bones policy that basically just covers catastrophic events. We are self-insuring on things like office visits, any medications, etc. Even so, we are saving hundreds/month.

Do tell us where you've gleaned the information that suggests POTUS gives up HIPPA rights.
What I 'posted', was text from the link.
Althea
Althea told me...
There you go. Let it all out. Deep breath in....hold....now let it out.
Where were we? Oh, right. You don't have a clue about HIPPA privacy laws.
I believe you.
Based on my years of experience message boarding, I have deduced that, to rightwingers, lying must be the norm - and they evidently thus assume everyone else is lying too.
I have never seen the point of lying on the internets to people you do not know and will never meet. I don't get it. Isn't that basically something only losers do?
Althea
Althea told me...
So here's how this works, mate. You made the claim that POTUS gives up all HIPPA privacy protections. If you can link us to that, you won't continue to embarrass yourself.
Althea
Althea told me...
Yes...I thought the same thing. Didn't he require a golf cart on one trip, when every other world leader walked?
From your article:
"Dr. Eric Topol, a cardiologist at the Scripps Research Institute, disputed that rosy assessment. He said on Wednesday that the most alarming fact is that the president’s LDL levels remain above 140 even though he is taking 10 milligrams of Crestor, a powerful drug that is used to lower cholesterol levels to well below 100."
Saw that too, posted about it last night. Crestor is one of the most powerful statins available.
BTW, a typical physical does not measure "stamina" or heart health other than lab values and an auscultation (listening to heart rhythm), maybe an in-office EKG. If they truly wanted to find out the state of Trump's heart, he'd probably be given a stress test and echocardiogram.
Do you know how hard it was to type that w/o snark? lol
Althea
Althea told me...
Well...he averages about 5 hours/day at work.
Exactly. What exactly do I get out of lying about our ACA premium amount? Not a darn thing, so why would I bother? The only thing I can guess is that for some reason he and Toxic Top are envious, although why I have no clue.

Worse yet....Obama would have gotten credit for an accomplishment.

Althea told me...
If you're typically healthy, it makes sense. You might still get ins. negotiated rates if you pay out of pocket anyway?
Althea
Althea told me...
Not sure what the demographics are here now, but when I joined there were quite a few 'kids'.
Althea
Althea told me...
Yep....reading between the lines. Like the 'he should lose 10-15 lbs.' statement. Or the refusal to cite the fact that he's spent more time on the golf course, than in the White House, when addressing his need for exercise.
she can barely walk up steps,and has fainted at a rally.
I've never seen her walk across terrain and up and down a ladder like Trump did
so that means he can't walk a golf hole but he can transverse a freeway/ladder/open field/steps into a stadium.
In a suit. In summertime. for almost 2 miles.
Uh Huh.
ut on the positive side, Dr. Jackson also said Mr. Trump had no history of smoking or drinking and did not have diabetes. An exercise stress test using a treadmill showed “above average” capacity for his age. An ultrasound of the heart was normal, he said.
“His cardiac health is excellent,” Dr. Jackson said. “He doesn’t smoke, he doesn’t have diabetes — a lot of the traditional risk factors he doesn’t have. And so I think those things, in combination with the excellent cardiac results that we got from the exercise stress test, I think, are very reassuring.”

It is a lie. Why can't he be truthful about something so unimportant in the scheme of things? I can't believe a word he says without checking and double-checking.
ARCHITECTURE VIEW
SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK TIMES JULY 1, 1979
"The 58‐story structure (Trump Tower) that will replace it simply shows what the zoning on Fifth Avenue permits and encourages. the arcane measurements of the law, this is a 21.6 F.A.R. building (floor area ratio, or the size of the building permitted for the size of the site), which is as about as big as you can get anywhere in New York, and bigger than anything seen yet on Fifth Avenue except Olympic Tower, which was built under the same zoning. Any developer who can get half a block on Fifth Avenue next to a site with some available air rights can do the same thing."
Trump Tower
Rising 68 stories above 5th Avenue between East 56th and East 57th streets, Trump Tower is one of New York’s most visited attractions since its completion in 1983. Originally the tallest all-glass structure in Manhattan, Trump Tower is still one of the most distinctive buildings in the world, in one of New York City’s most prime locations, offering unobstructed views of Central Park and midtown Manhattan.

You can't even be objective about this. I've looked at full-length pics of both and Hillary is no way obese for her height, unlike trump.

Lol. You forget I've been reading your posts for almost nine years. You and I have already argued about your tactic of blaming everything that goes wrong with the economy on Democrats. It's your m.o. about everything else in government also.
It's possible. Not all the docs up here are affiliated with the UP Health System so we can go to one of them and pay cash. Saves them hassle, paperwork, and delay; saves us $$.
