I would have to agree, but as always I see both sides.
I've had both lousy and great HMOs, so I know they don't
all terminate their incompetent employees even if they
can. I also know some very dedicated, hardworking
government employees. Overall, I'm satisfied with my HMO
coverage except that it's costing us too much of our
income and we aren't sure how we'll afford it when we
retire. Fortunately, we are fairly healthy, and each year
we don't have enough medical expenses to itemize on our
taxes. We just pray we don't come down with something that
would make us uninsurable. We know a lot of couples in
your situation, one working just to get healthcare
insurance. I'm hoping these issues will be resolved.
