Deductibles man. I have an HsA now because it builds over time and you don't lose the money you put on yearly and can be transferred if u leave.

HsA are good because they negotiate your bill down to what they think the procedure is worth.

WOOW!!!  We'll, there are people in the U.S. that do seek to get quality surgeries out of the country for less. Maybe I would do the same if I was in a similar situation.
