COBRA (an acronym for Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985) is a law that was passed during the Reagan administration that allows employees to continue their health coverage after leaving employment, but the employee must pay for it. I had no idea how easy health care was for us until I left that corporate job.

In November of 2016 we were facing a hefty health insurance premium increase for 2017 that was more than twice what we paid in 2016. How Medi-Share Will Affect our Finances: We were facing monthly health insurance premium options that ranged from $1360 – $1700, and a deductible of $10k or higher for 2017. Sleepless Nights.
