I Need To Choose A Health Care Plan, Which Is

I need to choose a health care plan, which is better, Affordable Health Care or one of the four Christian Health Share Plans or both? I get a pension of $24,000 per year, 59 years old, degenerative arthritis in my neck & back, acid reflux, right eye cornea abrasion, ringing constant in both ears. But, I'm eating more organic foods, drinking fermented kombucha & eating fermented salads. Staying away from processed foods. I'm subscribed to several healthy eating web sites. I'm with Kaiser Permanente with co-pays of $20 for primary physician & $40 for specialists at about $493 monthly pmt which would be about the same with Affordable Health Care because of my low income. With Christian Health Share my monthly payment would be between $200 & $300 per month, but I would pay all my smaller expenses out of pocket up to $300 & it may take up to three years to be fully covered. Maybe I'm just wasting my time here, I thought maybe you might have some answers from some of the patients you meet & the Office Staff. If I don't choose the right plan(s) I'm just going to be a big problem for some doctors & hospital. Thank you very much for all your help, whether or not you have any advice for me. Barry
