How much does it cost for your health insurance from your work?

[Tommy2000GT]

Right now I pay $50/month and my company takes care of the rest.

I find out it's going to cost me $425/month when I add my g/f after we get married :thumbsdown:

With 2 or more dependents, it going to cost $650/month. So it's going to get expensive when I have kids.

 

[Sixguns]

$155.00 a check for my wife and I.

 

[Ns1]

~150/mo for me +1

 

[Tommy2000GT]

I just found out the total cost (employee + employer) if it is 2 or more dependents will be $29,000/yr. That is pretty crazy. So how exactly will this Obama Care deal help?

It's raising everybody's prices. You do get one free annual physical, and if you can't afford insurance, you can get it somehow. But then again, I don't really know because we use my wife's work's provided insurance.

I guess one way to look at it is the increased premiums are a tax only on the people that pay for insurance so the others that don't get it? You can look into other plans that your company offers that are cheaper. And you get to change that after a change in status (single--> married) so you have plenty of time to figure out which plan you want.

 

[jonny13]

$26/paycheck for just me
$68/paycheck for myself and spouse

That is the cheapest which is Kaiser.

If I were to change to something good like Healthnet PPO, it would cost a total of $33,000/yr. So I would have to pay $750/month.

Somethings wrong with the math here. $750/month is $9000 year. $33k/year is $2750/month.

im starting my own business this year. gotta start making real money so i can actually afford health insurance in 2016

no, total cost to employee (me) + employer (work) is $33k/yr or $2750/mo.

But it will cost me $750/mo and my company will pay the rest.

 

[ch33zw1z]

~$700/month for me, wife, two kids. that is medical/dental for 4, vision for 3.

Gotcha, sorry, I missed that piece. Either way, it's insane how much insurance costs.

 

[Gooberlx2]

$380/mo for me + 1 on the highest tier plan

 

[nickbits]

$250 for just me. When I got married they added my wife for nothing. They are paying about $600/month.

 

[rh71]

Just me is $72/mo HIP. It went up from $25/mo HIP. Crazy jump for the same benefits but still low.

 

[Brainonska511]

$0/mo, but it's part of a fabulous graduate school compensation package.

You might be able to afford it next year when Obamacare kicks in.

 

[IndyColtsFan]

My employer picks up 100% of the tab.

[maddogchen]

My employer picks up 100% of the tab.

me too! Its not great insurance as my fellow employees complain about it.

 

[PenguinPower]

$208/mo for me, the wife and the two kids. 90/10 plan w/$200 deductible and $1000/$2000 individual/joint MOP.

 

[brianmanahan]

me %25, employer %75

it ends up costing me like 150$ a month for myself only

 

[brianmanahan]

btw with a gf like yours, health insurance will probably pale in comparison to other costs :awe:

 

[OutHouse]

so $4540.90 per year.

Florida Blue Cross / shield
