At any age, if you have healthcare and you pay late and it lapses, you can sign-up again at any time but you'll pay for the months that lapses and you weren't covered and your monthly premium is 30% more as a penalty! If you lapse again, you can sign-up again, but its an addtional 30% penalty! Imagine over a typical persons lifetime from 18 up how many times they'd lapse?

This is specifically done to fuck over people that are struggling financially or can't afford the premium. Very fucked up.

They know from a typical persons credit report how many times someone lapses in a bill. Another fucked up she'll game to put all these barriers in place so you INEVITABLY will pay more and "only you to blame" for not paying you master on time and being penalized. So fucked up.
