It's 260K (a price target) regardless of the time frame. Then once the 1000K deductible gets hit again (within 6 months), the 260K comes into play again.

I had 4 surgeries on my eye in one year (2 retinal detachments). My insurance paid 50K. Cost to me: 1K.

I've had a couple of prostrate biopsies: cost to me: 1K

My wife is a shrink and my oldest son and younger brother are physicians (Urologist and Anesthesiologist). So, I get the prescriptions and Doctor care at this point for minor things, but do have to pay for the prescriptions.

Honestly, I'd rather be Dead than pay a penny for ObamaCare.
