does everyone also get to enjoy gianormius deductibles these days too? those are fun. -- nm - kare Oct 12, 08:18 8
- Ours went up to $1000 per person, per year back in 2008. - Trish Oct 12, 08:33
- I *think* my current plan doesn't actually have a deductible. But it's also a fairly strict plan about doing everything in-network. -- nm - Don Homer Oct 12, 08:27
- I think mine is $500 -- nm - znufrii Oct 12, 08:24 5
  - that's ours for an individual plan, and $1k (or more accurately a pair of $500s) for a family plan. -- nm - TFox Oct 12, 08:26 4
    - yup, they also offer a "high deductible" plan for people who use an HSA, but I haven't really figured out how that works -- nm - znufrii Oct 12, 08:30 3
      - HSAs are kind of cool, but less so when your employer is helping foot the bill. - TFox Oct 12, 08:31 2
        
        what about if your employer matches 50% of the first $1000 you put in? - znufrii Oct 12, 08:37 1
        
        well, that's the thing. - TFox Oct 12, 08:38
we find out on friday. -- nm - amanda jones Oct 12, 08:06 2
- oh, I lie. I'm saving about $3 per month. (if I had family coverage, I'd save $90 per month next year vs. this. that -- nm - amanda jones Oct 12, 08:14 1
  - 's not insignificant.) -- nm - amanda jones Oct 12, 08:15
Ours went up 8%, as much as 15% in some cases. -- nm - budice Oct 12, 08:05
Ugh - that's a hit. -- nm - Epiphany Oct 12, 08:01 1
- it's not that bad for me, I make up a difference with the health assessment credit I forgot to take last year so my end cost will be about the same. -- nm - znufrii Oct 12, 08:02
