if i go to the doctor for an appointment, tests, hospital, all that is covered, we just show our card, but, eyes, dentist, prescription drugs is not.

so, lots of employers have supplementary insurance to cover all/some of that (depending on the plan).

Responses:

Is the dental insurance any good there? Here you are lucky to get max $1000 to $1500 a year coverage. -- nm - GregW Aug 9, 07:04 7
- Totally depends on the plan. I just checked mine: Inside is a C&P of my basic work health coverage: (Dental is at bottom) - Andie Aug 9, 07:09 4
  - So you can get some good coverage though it's likely pricey at level IV or V. -- nm - Krusty Aug 9, 07:13 3
    - No, the levels refer to treatment levels, not coverage levels. Like i said, that costs me $11 per pay period for both me and Dave. -- nm - Andie Aug 9, 07:16 2
      - Damn! That's awesome! Do you guys need an educated but underemployed guy to walk Canadian dogs? ;-) -- nm - Krusty Aug 9, 07:24 1
        
        That sounds like most of us so come on up -- nm - zork Aug 9, 07:35
- Depending on the plan, the worst I've ever had is 80% coverage. -- nm - Shaun Aug 9, 07:08
- depends on the plan, but I don't think I have a max/year coverage amount. -- nm - Reagen Aug 9, 07:08
I've been lied to! -- nm - ty97 Aug 9, 06:59 1
- we've been telling you guys this for years! -- (edited) - Andie Aug 9, 07:00
