Worst Case is calculated using a simulated "catastrophic illness" - a combination of surgery, expensive drugs, emergency care, and hospitalization.
The costs we calculated are yearly estimates - assuming you stay with the same plan, and they don't/can't raise your rates or cancel your plan - this estimate should hold for chronic illness.
We can estimate costs for specific chronic illnesses - click the "Personalize" button on the left side of the result page. You can select the specific chronic condition you're worried about, and it will provide a customized estimate.

oh, i completely missed the link to the actual tool, sorry.
thanks for the reply - i was just curious from a "foreign spectator" viewpoint.
i was going to ask what protection there was against cancelling plans, but a little googling seems to show that was made illegal as part of obamacare!
