Or he's buying insurance for a family of four. In which case, he is likely to be paying even more than 12k for it. Not if none of the points from my earlier post apply, (either he has some pre-existing condition that's bad enough to raise costs but not to get him dropped, or its an issue of government requirements pushing up his costs, or its gold plated insurance that many making $60k or less wouldn't chose to pay, I'll modify that last point to include "silver-plated" insurance, basically if you insist on low deductible's and 0 or near zero co-insurance). In NY, NJ, MS ok you might pay that much, but that's covered by "its an issue of government requirements pushing up his costs".
