A conversation with a resthome resident about health insurance.

The other day I was visiting with the one resthome resident who has a dark sense of humor, and he asked me what was new, so I told him about how I had gone online and picked my health insurance plan for next year.

"Is it good?", he was like.  "What does it cover?".

He used to work in business and tends to be interested in stuff like that, so since he wasn't really too familiar with the details of the Affordable Care Act, I roughly told him about the essential benefits concept of the Silver-level plans.

"So if I took an axe and split your head open, would it cover that?", he was like.
