But if I did get an accident, I wonder if bankruptcy would help get me out of these horrendous unpayable student loans... Oh wait, I did look into that. Nope.

see if you can get an HSA privately
I have been out of the business for years, but that is what I used to recommend for people your age
I'll look into it, but I didn't even know what that was, I had to google it...
health savings account. if you can get lucky and stay healthy the first year, you can build up an account to offset the out of pocket costs and hopefully keep pace in coming years
I don't even know if its offered anymore to individuals
what state do you live in ? North Carolina ?
this may be dated, but it looks promising
HSA

If your healthy for the most part you're better off waiting to see what happens after the election. I can tell you from experience that the current system is a nightmare. Been waiting months for a relative simple procedure...

The subsidy is paid directly to your insurer.....after the premium, you pay the deductible and co-insurance.

Actually, that varies plan to plan, probably state to state.
Under my plan, I pay the full hit for all doctor visits until my outrageous deductible is paid.....and I have an HMO.
