On a scale of 1-5, how satisfied are you with your current health insurance coverage? (1 = least satisfied, 5 = most satisfied)

In computers, log files, like life in general, are always presumed transient. In America, so is health insurance. (|||❛︵❛.)
I am on Medicare, a supplement of Anthem Blue, and an RX drug plan with Cigna. Much better coverage than I had through the high risk plan through the state of Indiana. I was unable to purchase health insurance because I was T!D, then I turned 65 and the doors opened up wide.
I am currently on Medicare with my previous employer insurance as my supplemental insurance. However, my supplemental will not make payments on anything that Medicare does not cover. I can no longer get items that I got before I was on Medicare. I find that Medicare does not cover some of my needed items. Medicare also has many obstacles and unnecessary rules that are difficult to negotiate. Also, with the annual deductibles and copays, there is MUCH room for improvement.
I have had EXCELLENT coverage thru my husband’s employer. However, we have just divorced and I am now searching for insurance in the “marketplace” so I imagine my satisfaction is going to drop down to a 3 or 4.
I have a great Medicare Advantage plan with a NYS regional plan – CDPHP. The only downside if they do not cover Baqsemi in their formulary – yet.
I meant to write the only downside is (not if) they don’t cover Baqsemi yet.
I wish we had a window to fix typos after we post
I rated the question a five (5). I have Original Medicare, along with Medicare part B and from my former employer I have a fantastic Secondary Insurance that pays for all that Medicare doesn’t cover. Blue Cross Blue Shield, Federal Employee Program.
I have Medicare and a supplemental with a discount due to being a teacher, other than the disruptions that occur every time the insurance or a supplier changes I am thrilled at the medicare coverage.
