CALLER: So, if the healthcare marketplace goes away, you know, obviously, I have some severe concerns. I've tried to educate myself a little bit lately on this and reading what I could, and I've saw that people that are making the income I'm making on the platform, if this goes away, you know, our policy is about a 104%, it says, or equivalent of around 11,500 a year. So, you know, as a single parent, that's concerning, right?
SEAN HANNITY (HOST): You know what's frustrating to me? Because you're describing a dilemma that many, many people listening to us right now are going through. And like you, I went through a long period in my early adult life. I didn't have health insurance. I couldn't afford health insurance. It was not a priority of my life.
There are so many new, innovative, creative ways that people can get covered and do it way more cheaply. Like, we have our friend Dr. Josh Umber, AtlasMD. It's now national, And, you know, and that's a healthcare cooperative. And when he started this in Wichita, you paid $50 a month, unlimited appointments with doctors. They took care of everything, except major issues, like cancer, heart attack, stroke, things like that. Although they would start, you know, if you went into the office, they would offer emergency care immediately. Unlimited visits, $50 for an adult, $10 for a kid per month. That's how they started. And then you'd leave. He would negotiate with pharmaceutical companies, and you'd pay 95% less than others. And it was just brilliant.
Now, he incorporates telemedicine in this. Then, we -- so you have healthcare cooperatives, you have telemedicine. Then, if you have a plan like that that takes care of your day-to-day needs where, you know, they'll do stitches, they'll take care of broken arms, you know, you get x-rays if you need it, whatever it is. And then you get a catastrophic plan, which is relatively inexpensive. The higher the deductible, the better, for the god forbid moment, cancer, heart attack, stroke, bad accident. That is relatively inexpensive. Relatively. I'm not saying anything's cheap today.
But you could do so much better. There are so many better ways, innovative ways, and we're not using technology yet to innovate our healthcare system and save a fortune. And it sounds like you did that on your own before it was fashionable. Good for you.
CALLER: Well, I appreciate you saying that, and I appreciate you, you know, referencing some other ways that, possibly some other pursuits or avenues of address I can take. I think that's one thing, you know, when you're working 50, 60 hour weeks and, you know, life we all have busy days, right? So I think it was the attraction probably of the convenience of it for me. It was all in one user friendly place. I wasn't having to do the legwork and track this information down and find it. Not opposed to it at all, and I'm not saying after this conversation, it's not going to be something I think I am interested, and I certainly will seek the alternatives and see what is best for for my children and I.
