I'm not paying it out of my pocket... the company is... :)

Call me cheap I guess. I have a $229/mo plan for my family of 4 (5 in
a week or so). $7500 deductible. Next year my rate will drop, after
the insurance company re-rates their HSA rates I'll be moving to the
$10,000 deductible plan, that will be an absolutely no benefits until
10k is paid. I don't mind it, I'd rather not have to pay the extra
per month.
Just a quick comparison, if I pay $229/mo vs $650/mo, if I max my
deductible for the year I pay $1698 more than Marlon, but if I only
hit $750, I saved $5052. I'd rather put money in the bank and have it
work for me than giving it to an insurance company.

Here in Wa. it's $650ish for me and the three kids. $750 deductable per
person.
The wife's is covered by her work.
No dental and a crappy vision plan.
What we are missing is competition in the medical industry. It's got TOO
much government interference and no lawsuit protection.

Ahhhh... now we know.... it's Florida that is causing everyone else's
insurance rates to go up... :)
We pay about $700/month to cover an entire family (this is just health
insurance, the dental and vision is extra).

As a business owner, in Florida, where the Health Insurance is one of the

It is nice to see that you offer 100% health insurance coverage for all
of
your Employees, where the company is picking up the Tab for the Insurance
Premiums.
Simply for the sake of my understanding, why would you choose to
" force us to go to a subcontractor type work-force (at least for 5-10
of
our current employees) to get us under the 25 employee limit and ..... "
offer less benefits for everyone in the company "
At the end of the day, $412 / employee is not a whole lot of money,
especially when you are talking about a benfit like Health
Insurance.......
If you are looking to have some means of off-setting the additional $$$,
would'nt it me easier and better for everyone if you reduced your Company
provided 100% coverage to let's say 90%, and have the Employee pay the
other
10% ?
What are your current costs for Health Insurnace ? We are seeing
typically
$300-$400 / month for a single male, and $1300-$1450 /month for a family
>From what we have been seeing in the last few years, including our
present
coverage increase (approx $8100/year for 3 families)... $412 /year
increase
would be a Blessing and a Christmas present...

Hi,
What are everyone else's plans if this new health insurance plan gets
passed
in Congress? We fall in the 25-100 employee category, so they are
estimating
our health insurance costs would go up $412 per employee for us (we
already
cover 100% of the costs for our employees). So, basically this would
force
us to go to a subcontractor type work-force (at least for 5-10 of our
current employees) to get us under the 25 employee limit and offer less
benefits for everyone in the company.
Once again, it seems our government is stepping in where it doesn't
belong.
Either take over the health care system 100% (including funding it), or
leave it alone.
