Turn Medical Costs Into Holiday Gifts!

After 9 months, you do have to pay a monthly maintenance fee...I guess this could be useful anywhere though..tis the season to start thinking about Christmas gifts...and for everything else the Visa card doesn't cover, there's Mastercard...BD

Nothing says "I love you, Mom," like some more medicine for her diabetes, or "You're the best, Dad," like a refill of nitro tablets. That's why the health insurance company Highmark is offering new Healthcare Visa Gift Cards for about $5 plus an unspecified shipping and handling fee, you can load it with anywhere from $25 to $5,000 to be used exclusively on medical expenses.

After the first 9 months, the card emerges from the womb of "I already paid for this!" and starts charging you a monthly $1.50 maintenance fee.

Won't your kid be excited come Christmas morning when she finds out her staph infection is going to get treated?!
