Terry, I have posted on this subject before but i will be glad to offer it up again. I have found (through many past mistakes) that a "Medical Savings Account" is the best way to go. I have mine through a company called Golden Rule. They offer significantly lower premiums than any other company that I have seen. The payment is roughly what i was paying before but the difference between the actual premium and the payment is what goes in the interest bearing savings account. This money can be used for any medically deductible expenses you find throughout the year including but not limited to satisfying the deductible. Please do yourself the favor of at least checking into it. It really is the best thing going IMHO!
