For many of us, thinking about health insurance typically has one of two reactions. Either our eyes just glaze over because it is so boring, and we're thankful to have health insurance taken care of through a partner, a spouse or our parents; or we instantly feel our blood pressure rise because it is such a frustrating and confusing process. And it seems like no matter what decision we make, we're probably going to mess something up.
