[QUOTE="UPSwife0174, post: 1503962, member: 54217"] Bottom line is health insurance will NEVER be what it was. Used to be for a single person, coverage was around $300/month through our company, with excellent benefits (though it excluded vision and dental). This was 15 years ago. Today, the minimum we can get for our employees is $400/month premium that comes with a $3000 deductible, higher office co-pays and more out of pocket than ever before. I'm not really sure who is happy with ANY healthcare these days, but I work in medical collections, so I know that any way you slice it, [B]un(or under)insured people have been costing us millions all along. [/B] Public aid comes from us working people, and then we get nailed with high doctor bills because of all the people who simply don't care to pay their bills. It's a no-win situation, but I'll tell you I was forced to drop my insurance at work because it's simply too costly, and I'll take whatever (free) insurance benefits I can get from UPS. [/QUOTE]
