Many people are under the impression that your health insurer is beating the bushes to get you the best price on doctor visits, hospital charges, and prescription drugs. That's obviously not true.

Agreed. But without insurance you are screwed if you can't get an agreed price up front, which you can't for most services.

We go very high deductible Bronze plan ($10k pp) and pay out of pocket for some services.

A high deductible plan with HSA would be ideal. None available in our area with our doctors, so we stick with our very high deductible, non-HSA plan.
