They increase their fees significantly once you're over 55 years.
Long term prescriptions are not covered. So if you become diabetic after you join, and need a continual prescription of metformin, you won't get it. I assume the same goes for statins, etc.
If you have pre-existing conditions, you have to wait till year 3 to get it covered, and they limit to $25K/year for pre-existing conditions.
Seems decent if young, healthy and not on a good employer sponsored plan. Bad idea as you start to age. His argument is that if you save plenty per month by not having regular insurance, you can stuff/invest those savings for use later when you're older.

That’s good info. I’m just glad to hear it sounds somewhat viable.
