(My husband is retired military.) I don't know how we would be able to afford a "regular" health care plan. <br />I'm not denying that there are problems with the military health care system, but when we can see a military doc, there are no co-pays -- and the copays we do have when seeing a doctor "in town" are usually only $12. I'm not a fan of going to the doctor or having sick kids, but when you need to do it, it sure is nice to know that it won't break the [piggy] bank.<br />My first child's birth would have cost us $18,000. Instead, we paid $35. Now that kid and his wife are uninsured adults because they cannot afford insurance.
