Hi M~ Our insurance is for small business(under 5 active FT employees), same Co as yours and a PPO. $15 co pay drugs, and a co pay for visit, hospital usage, etc...no dental. $1150+ for the two of us!!!!! Probably because we are a bit older... The younger folks don't know how lucky they are when their company picks up the premium cost!

Let me see....where could we use the extra $1000/mo if we didn't have to pay that extra premium........heheheh

BTW, LB posted a couple of months ago an article by Robert Bartley of the WSJ suggesting a plan like I have been mentioning for the last couple of years, would be a GOOD thing! Wish the WSJ and others would start such a movement...we'd all be better off...better coverage, for more people, and lower premiums, because the 'risk pool' would be so large!!

EDIT: Here's the link for the Bartley Editorial that LB posted in August........
