The cancer treatment costs are probably higher.
Probably? Since the year 2000, I've known at least 7-8 people with lymphoma or other cancers including both my in-laws. I can't begin to tell you how much it cost them.
In fact, one neighbor is still undergoing treatment right now and so far this year's cost is well over $25K and she's paid at least $5K out of pocket.
In the last two years, I've had two grandchildren born and their cost was no where near $25K.

You can get family coverage under the individual market (as opposed to group policies in employer offered insurance). But if you are a single man covering yourself, then no.

Ellmers is trying to justify policies going up in cost in order for man to be covered for pregnancies. Actually, they are admitting that they are redistributing wealth by making people pay into a pool for services they will never need, like single men on individual policies that must cover pregnancy.
I am saying that today (before the Obamacare policies take over) there are gender differences in pricing to account for what each gender may need from the total list of services provided.

It costs real money for doctors to deliver items such as cell phones, flashlights, assorted vegetables and a sundry of other items. /S, /S

That’s true.
And with health insurance we are all forced to pay for drug abuse, so why not make all drivers pay for some driver’s DUIs?

I meant “Ellmers is saying THEY are trying to justify...”

“Has a man ever delivered a baby?”
Oh boy. They better put a stretcher in that room. If they start asking questions that require Democrats to think and tell the truth, those Democrat heads are going to start exploding like overripe pumpkins.

But if a man has a wife they would get insurance covering BOTH of them!
A single man gets a policy covering only himself!

yeah but they charge him for the female stuff he can’t use, regardless of a wife - who would be increasing the premium, remember so she’s not ‘free’.
it’s all messed up. on purpose.

Ellmers: And that is why health care premiums are increasing, because we are forcing them to buy things that they will never need. Thank you. That's the the whole point of ObamaCare: to make rich, white people buy things they will never need to cover poor, brown people who need things they can't afford to buy - but vote reliably progressive.
Too bad we never hear that asserted in these types of hearings.

She said ‘individual policy’.
You said ‘individual market’.
I understand ‘individual policy’ to be an insurance policy for an individual.

“Sebelius: The individual policies cover families. Men often do need maternity care for their spouses and for their families, yes.”
Don’t those women by law have to carry their own insurance?
POWER TO THE PEOPLE. EQUALITY. And all the rest of that Marxist identity politics claptrap.

The plan was that women shouldnt be charged more than men, even though they usually require more care. But I dont think it is fair for an individual man to be forced to pay for maternity care for himself when there is no risk that he will get pregnant, do you? But that's not unique to Obamacare. I get my health insurance through my company and I pay exactly the same for my single coverage as a man does. And it's been that way at every company I ever worked for.
