The Notwithstanding Blog hosted the Cavalcade of Risk this week in the most interesting fashion I’ve ever seen. Check it out. And be sure to grab a pencil and paper because it’s a quiz! Since I’ve been writing about health insurance for quite a while and I’m familiar with a lot of the topics that usually appear in the COR, I took the quiz without reading the entries, just for fun (I got six right and two wrong). Our regular readers will probably have fun taking the quiz too, especially since most of the entries in this edition of the COR are related to healthcare and/or health insurance.
Jaan Sidorov’s article about health insurance exchanges is really good (and I had to read it to figure out the correct answer to the question for his post – it was one of the two I missed). He notes that it’s a bit illogical that so many of us are willing to spend hours comparison shopping for a new TV, but feel put out if we have to spend much time at all comparison shopping for health insurance. And he laments the fact that health insurance exchanges are in their very early days but already are being dismissed by some as too complicated for the average consumer to figure out.
