Maybe it's the state I'm in, but whenever I've looked into high deductible plans it doesn't seem that they save much money.

Most of health insurance premiums go to pay for very expensive treatments, usually at the end of life. Routine medical bills don't add up to much: but bills can add up to $250k pretty quick if you get cancer.
