You definitely can't base health insurance in any of your planning right now. Look at all the changes in the past two years and lots of increases if you have to buy your own. Full-timers now who are not on Medicare are really running into lots of problems. You just don't know what the future will hold in that respect, unfortunately.
This is the part that really worries me. Health care is very fluid right now and god only know when costs will settle out. However, since health care insurance is now a requirement to buy, I think they will figure out a way to make it affordable to those on fixed income and/or retired. Unfortunately, I can only plan on past experiences and the data I have available at this moment.
I have reconsidered work camping and would be open to it a few times a year when I need to slow down, but will probably consider it as a last resort measure only.
