If the average cost of a person's health insurance premium yearly is $5,000, and the average ER visit is $1,300, factoring in deductibles, you'd have to go to the emergency room 5+ times a year to break even.

Errr... you are only looking at the cost of an ER visit.  Sometimes ER visits result in hospitalizations and those bad boys can cost over $100,000.
