The cost of healthcare has steadily increased over the past decade, leaving many individuals no choice but to forgo coverage altogether. There are numerous reasons for skyrocketing prices, like the rising cost of medical services, a soaring number of chronically ill individuals, and insurance monopolies dictating the market to benefit their pockets.
Average fees have risen to roughly $500 per individual and $1100 per family, causing many to look elsewhere for medical care or simply avoid services.
