5 Tips On How To Survive The AHCA

Trump's new AHCA bill got you down? No worries! Here's 5 tips we wish we weren't serious about to help you out!

1. Go to Mexico for an nearby vacation - and get your healthcare done there

South of the border for some healthcare? Not as strange as you would think. Say hello to tacos, fiestas and paying just a portion of some planned medical care costs.

2. Mexico not your thing? How about Thailand instead?

If you want something a bit more exotic while getting your healthcare or surgery...welcome to the land of smiles. Thai medical costs let you shop around and pay less than 1/3 the cost of comparable American procedures.

3. Use your health coverage ASAP

If you're still covered before the AHCA kicks in, you're in luck. You know what coverage options and benefits you have. Lucky you! How about planning it out now and going to the doctor instead of putting it off?

4. Join a Health Coop

This option isn't available for everyone. But if you live in an area with a health or physician coop you can save some serious money. You usually pay a small monthly fee for access to deeply discounted doctor's visits. Search for a 'physicians coop' and see if one is nearby.

5. Crowdfund - When all else fails

No shame in this one! If your medical costs are too high and you must have a treatment, consider crowdfunding. Many times people are forced to use kickstarter or indiegogo to raise money like this. If you check your pride you could get some help.
