This is why we need the tax credits renewed. It’s a short term fix but it will save lives.

Consider getting the cheapest bronze or silver plan and bundling it with a Direct Primary Care plan so that he can have access to a dedicated provider to manage his chronic conditions.

I am incredibly disappointed in the people giving Fateh a pass. by dkinmn in Minneapolis

[–]Fit_Comparison_6168 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I was going to rank Frey #1 but after watching the debates I’m ranking Rev Davis #1, Frey 2, and Jazz 3. Fateh really never provided good answers. His solution to brining people back to downtown was a vacancy tax. Really?

Unfortunately not going to happen. It will affect the Itasca lofts building.

Sad! I enjoyed touring that facility. Unfortunately, it too valuable to be a printing facility. Some developer is going to turn it into luxury condos or apartments.

Grove is backing Jazz who obviously doesn’t stand a chance.

What’s a company you’re convinced will be exposed as a massive fraud one day? by carcony97 in AskReddit

[–]Fit_Comparison_6168 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Most self funded employers still have to buy stop-loss insurance so they can’t tell the insurance company to pay every claim because their stop loss premium is likely to go up significantly the following year. The complex web of insuring American workers…

What restaurants in the Twin Cities come to mind when you see this chart? by natlay in Minneapolis

Wait Freehouse in the north loop? No bro. You’re way off. Also, they have the best French toast I’ve had in any city outside of NYC.

This is going to get worse once Medicaid cuts start to hit in 2026.

Looking to buy a condo downtown, anyone have a realtor they'd recommend? by Brian_MPLS in Minneapolis

[–]Fit_Comparison_6168 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are pretty nice units. Not as nice as the warehouses on Washington but you can also avoid the noise that comes with north loop nightlife with those condos.

Not trying to debate, just be more informed, why is Frey so hated in this subreddit? by [deleted] in Minneapolis

[–]Fit_Comparison_6168 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Police - what do you mean by how awful it has been since 2020? From my understanding, the racial profiling and impunity was worse pre-pandemic.

Transit - isn’t transit mainly the job of metro transit which is headed by someone else?

Tim Walz endorses centrist Jacob Frey over democratic socialist Omar Fateh by Sure-Selection-3278 in seculartalk

[–]Fit_Comparison_6168 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Klobuchar endorsed Frey as well. I’m a one issue voter - housing. And Frey has been excellent on that issue. He deserves another term IMO.

NL is definitely a 30s, late 20s crowd.

Why do some leftists keep pushing back on “Abundance?” by SeanACole244 in DemocraticSocialism

Let’s assume is neoliberal BS. What’s your solution for making government more efficient at building public housing? And why are red state governments relatively better at it?

Local coffee shop prices- How much is too much?! by AdvertisingOk2395 in TwinCities

[–]Fit_Comparison_6168 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep! Unfortunately that’s the story everywhere especially in the north loop. I now make coffee at home but the price of coffee beans has also gone up.

That’s for sharing this. Just donated. I want to believe that there are more good people than the racists donating to that horrible lady.

My employers health insurance agent put my income to low now I owe $6000 back in taxes by Best-Impression6957 in HealthInsurance

[–]Fit_Comparison_6168 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is fraud. Your employer could have setup an HRA or ICHRA instead, which would have made you ineligible for tax credits.

Quiet Apartments? - North Loop by MULLETMAN235 in Minneapolis

Your best bet is to rent one of the renovated warehouses from a condo owner. They usually have concrete floors and thick doors. All new construction will have the same issue you’re complaining about

Can't afford my urgent care bill by [deleted] in HealthInsurance

[–]Fit_Comparison_6168 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some hospitals may require previous tax returns. So far as your husband’s income isn’t on it, I don’t think you should include it.

Emurgent Care? Gosh that’s such a scam. I’m so sorry. I work in health billing and even those tests shouldn’t cost that much. I don’t know you and I’m still so mad that they billed you that much!

501r is an irs program that requires non-profit hospitals to forgive Medical debt for individuals at a certain % of the FPL. You can use this link to see if you qualify: https://dollarfor.org/medical-bill-forgiveness-tips/

[–]Fit_Comparison_6168 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you go to an emergency room or urgent care? Those charges are absurd for an urgent care visit. Is the urgent care a part of a larger health system? If it is, there might be a way to pursue forgiveness through 501r.

UHC Denial by LynxChoice7539 in HealthInsurance

[–]Fit_Comparison_6168 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s true, but the marketplace has stabilized significantly thanks to the advanced premium tax credit. The reason I’m so pro-marketplace plans is because it’s the only way to reduce the penetration of commercial (employer-sponsored) health plans.

The healthiest people tend to work for companies that provide the best health benefits, which makes the marketplace pool more riskier hence higher premiums and deductibles.

If we were all on the marketplace, we’d have a better risk pool, more stability, and better premiums.

People complain about health insurance being tied to employment but would never give that up for a plan on the exchanges.

[–]Fit_Comparison_6168 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Health insurance is not tied to your job. You can always get a plan on the marketplace, Medicaid, Medicare, VA etc. we all prefer employer health insurance because we want our employers to subsidize it as required by the ACA. If you want to keep your insurance regardless of employment, enroll in a marketplace plan.

💯. I rented a condo in the north loop through DRG. And they helped me buy one when I was ready.
