Overpaying for health insurance? Check the checklist

FILE - In this Nov. 8, 2018, file photo, the U.S. Medicare Handbook is photographed, in Washington. A new study finds that more than half of seriously ill Medicare enrollees _ 53% _ struggle to pay their medical bills. Prescription drugs are the leading problem.

Does your health plan have an IRA-on-steroids option?

FILE - In this June 1, 2017, file photo, a sign stands on the campus of the Aetna headquarters, in Hartford, Conn.

Those companies plan to convert drugstores into health care hotspots that people can turn to for a variety of needs in between doctor visits. (AP Photo/Bill Sikes, File)

When health premiums and your budget collide

The Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan logos are seen on their headquarters in Detroit, Thursday, Feb. 28, 2008. A spate of recent Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan TV and radio ads tell listeners that legislation pending in the state Legislature will keep health insurance affordable and available when they need it most. But critics of the Detroit-based company say the changes Blue Cross is pushing for are a power and money grab by a nonprofit organization that already gets major state tax breaks in exchange for helping make health care more affordable and accessible.
