Some of the maintenance drugs can be expensive and Express Scripts does a good job of approval and not trying to overrule the doctors. This could be a problem for many that have a family member that needs expensive maintenance drugs.

I expect a substantial premium increase on my supplemental and a carrier and drug coverage change. That doesn't mention what will likely happen to my medicare A and B premium, nor my wife's continual coverage under the United group plan.
If I choose to be charitable, I will do so individually and will continue to oppose the federal government mandating it.
The inability to afford medical insurance is unfortunate. However, medicine and insurance are businesses, they are not "rights."
Now go stick it.

I'm retired...that's called "fixed income" for you working people.

You can keep AETNA. You would have thought deregulation would have had a greater impact on insurance coverage and cost, but being retired - you have choices !!!
