united health care good or bad?
my wife is a nurse and her hospital provides united health care insurance.
Is it a good insurance to go with? cuz 2 days ago she went to walgreens to get a prescription which was $60 and she had to pay $50 dollars out of it.what kind of insurance is that makes you pay 83% of your medication.So we were thinking to go with somebody else, we are in denver, co what are some other reasonable insurance compaies to go with ? we use to pay just $9 for the same prescription under tricare until 2 months before.
Switch to Blue cross. It costs a little more but they cover prescription drugs 100%.

Who pays Joe "You're a Liar!" Wilson's house payment?
Could it be THE INSURANCE INDUSTRY????
“In fact, over his entire congressional career, health professionals represent Wilson’s top industry contributors, donating a total of $244,196 to his campaign, according to the Center for Responsive Politics OpenSecrets.org database.
He received another $86,150 from pharmaceutical companies,
$73,050 from insurance companies and
$68,000 from hospitals and nursing homes.
“Among Wilson’s top contributors are the American Hospital Association, a lobby group that represents the interests of hospitals and health networks, and the American Medical Association, which represents physicians.”
And he received a token $5 from me as a compliment for speaking the truth about our Dear Leader Obama. If he uses it to make his house payment, well I have no problem with that.

Home Insurance replacement cost?
Anyone have any idea how insurance companies figure out what it would cost to rebuild an entire house if it burned down or blew away...I live on long island....I would assume it is the square footage multiplied by a cost per foot....any ideas what the actual cost per foot is today????
I'm sure there is a mathematical formula somewhere, but when I was still writing home insurance we took all the information (either rooms or square footage information), plugged the details into an "estimator" and got a value. There is a standard estimator that most companies use, and there is probably a copy available somewhere on the web.
You can't just use straight square footage, because you have to consider bathroom fixtures, finished vs. unfinished basement, add-ons (built-in ovens, ceiling fans, central air, etc) too.
