The State (South Carolina) we're seriously considering for our next move offers only an EPO policy (Exclusive Provider*) in the Individual Health Insurance market.
Our exposure until Medicare is (1 year and 3 years). Both in very good health. Very minimal use of Healthcare to date.
Still, can't decide how crazy it is to take the EPO risk because of the "what if" issue. There are potential work arounds but they are a pain and potentially expensive.
Can't decide whether to roll the dice until 65 or pick another State...
* EPO means zero coverage/negotiated rates outside of Network
