You're kidding me!! I've spent how much???!!!

That's what I thought Kass.

I thought you got back 20cents for every dollar over $1500 for out of pocket costs. Is this wrong??? I like your calculations much better!

Yes, sorry, anything over $2000 (last fy it was $1500) you get 20 cents in the dollar directly offset - sorry, that was a late night post! You'll still be looking at $7000 or so offset. My bad mistake sorry!!!

That amount is amazing. Full credit to you and your bank manager.

On the upside, how are we going to spend your tax return? Shoes? Or straight back on medical bills?

I didn't realise they'd raised the cut off. Bugger. That's another $100 I won't be getting back...

[onthefly]

oh, I didn't know that either, thanks. Still, a nice offset (or whatever it's called). Would be nicer if you'd gotten a baby for free of course.

Lol...If you see any baby's being given away for free, let me know

PS FabFi - Any dime I get back will go straight into the baby-making account! I can buy shoes when I hit menopause

and don't forget it's only 20 cents in the dollar for the out of pocket bit....not the initial charge, so will probably be a bit less than that.

Yeah we quite regularly have years in the tens of thousands initial outlay...our usual out of pocket per year is over $8000 on medical, thats without IVF or obstetricians bills....IVF years were hugmungous!!
