It covers anything over $2500 for the year so that's the most I'll be on the hook in any year. It doesn't cover doctor visits or anything routine, but for somebody like me it's probably the best bet. Make sure to ask questions and read the fine print in the new policies. I have always bought my own insurance because I’m self employed.

Only after my employer intervene did they stop threatening to send me to collections. Because Health insurers are out for profit, they often do everything possible to deny claims. That's why belonging to a larger group is important. Last time I had an issue with my health insurers, I had to ask my employer to intervene (after a year of fighting the bill).

Glad to hear your dilemma is over! I hope he enjoys the new job. I know how awful that insurance can be. Personally, from the bad experience that I have had, I would pay the extra to be on group insurance for a while, then you can qualify for COBRA if you husband changes jobs again. Wow!
