There aren’t a lot of Doctors either. If your eyes have swelled shut, I’d consider that a shock type scenario, that’s not a normal allergic reaction and I suspect doctors would agree. If your eyes have swelled shut, what else is going to swell shut.
Those expenses are just as expensive on a PPO non-preferred list. With coverage often around 50% and a typical doctor visit in the $150-$200 range.

Good info about the plans being cheaper off the exchange in the other States. I hadn’t thought of that and in retrospect, it makes complete sense.
If you’re under 400% FPL, the plans on the exchange aren’t the plans, they’re enhanced plans and the enhanced silver quickly looks more like a Gold plan due to the lower co-pays etc.
Essentially, the plan Silver plan is based on an expected applicant pool that will really qualify for a “gold” plan service level on a “silver” plan, where as off list, the silver plan is the silver plan.
