    State -- not allowed to use the national exchange.

    Kaiser says the only way I could get the coverage I'm looking for is to get a separate ~$25/month policy -- which is basically what I had pre obamacare.

    no I dont. I rarely have a need to visit

    I'm loaded now. final note I think.. I'm not one to job hop yet I find myself looking for greener pasture at times, I can't take the insurance with me if I go else where, I want something I can take with me
