I didn't ask if someone does. I ask if anyone HERE does. Do you?
I don't care what you THINK it costs. I want to know what people here pay for Health insurance (not dental, not vision, not co-pays, not deductibles) if you are willing to share. Not what your Aunt or Uncle or granddad says they pay.
I also wouldn't mind if you also inlcuded your state and age (nearest decade or half decade works)
There were two very conflicting surveys. One said the average US insurance for a single person costs $4000+ a year. The other reported $2500. That is significantly different. Considering everyone i personally know doesn't pay anywhere close to $400 a month I'm inclined to believe one of the surveys was full of ****. So that is why I'm asking people here.
Ours is around the $2500 or less mark, but we chose one with a high deductible $1500, so that would put us close to $3500, and you have to figure in the employer pays sometimes 70% of the premiums on top of that. I'd say everybody with decent HC is paying well over the $4,000 mark.
