Does you full time job provide you with health insurance

Miller · 01-04-2009, 09:27 AM

I have a few friends with full time jobs that don't offer health insurance, and i find that kind of grim, I'd never take a job that doesn't offer health insurance.

I get full health paid for, no dental or vision though.

Scrubbin_Bubbles · 01-04-2009, 09:38 AM

I have Teamsters insurance. I have to pay some of whatever they don't cover. Dental is included and I get a free eye exam and 2 free pairs of glasses + prescription safety glasses every 2 years.

ShabazKillaX · 01-04-2009, 09:38 AM

Even though I'm a consultant my agency offers insurance. It's cheaper for me to be under my wife's plan though. Both pay around ~75-80% of the plan cost.

Medical, dental and vision but not fully paid.

I pay about $200 a month for our coverage (medical, dental, eye, a ton of life insurance, long and short term disability, etc), but it's excellent coverage.

Doesn't cover dental or optical though, dental especially is pretty crucial to good health and it's really expensive

couturedharlot · 01-04-2009, 10:49 AM

my place pays for full medical and vision, no dental though, which sucks ass.

Chainblade · 01-04-2009, 11:11 AM

my last job paid for almost all of it. only had to pay like $40 a month (just me). that included medical, vision, and dental. it was pretty good insurance.

i've had some jobs in the past where it just was terrible and wasn't worth it. A couple jobs in the past were $300-$500 a month! Ya right, I didn't pay that. It's risky just in case I get into an accident but I just did without it. I haven't been to the doctor in years anyways.

86mcss · 01-04-2009, 11:24 AM

I have a PPO (blue cross) and free dental and free vision. I pay 60 a month.

MovingTarget · 01-04-2009, 11:26 AM

medical, dental and vision.

I pay around 160 per pay check (myself + family)...they have it all broken down over the year, per week...so even the months when I get three checks it still comes out....damn it....

and I have a part time job that offers benefits too...but I don't use them....

Mr. Ali · 01-04-2009, 11:35 AM

I work part time so no insurance for me. I pay $175 for Kasiers $50 co-pay plan.

Actually, I don't pay it but my dad now does after watching the movie Sicko in Iran and getting freaked out that I don't have health insurance. Go go Michael Moore!

-Seven- · 01-04-2009, 12:09 PM

I couldnt have a job that didnt give me full health insurance.

So yes, my job gives it to me. If it didnt, I would get a new job. I dont work where I work for the money, even though its a nice bonus

Juballharshaw · 01-04-2009, 12:22 PM

Work pays for most of a Kaiser plan since I work more than 25 hours a week. I think I end up having to pay ~$30 out of pocket a month.

Tricare Prime Remote. AKA the military pays for it all and I get to go to civilian doctors.

ninefivezero · 01-04-2009, 01:01 PM

I get medical, dental, etc from work when I'm full time. School is back in session so I'm only 3 days a week now, but luckily I'm still under my parents.

Scooby · 01-04-2009, 01:13 PM

I pay $24 a month for my PPO through work. I forgot to sign up for dental though, and thats i think $4 more a month?

tex · 01-04-2009, 01:55 PM

nothing. for some reason my bosses are against benefits, giving shitty excuses. I don't mind too much, because it keeps the company lean (and I'm young and dont go to the doctor much)

super_Chris · 01-04-2009, 02:06 PM

My work pays for 50% of a Kaiser Deductible-HMO. DHMO's suck, but they're better than nothing. This is all theoretical because my insurance just kicked in on the 1st.

	All I see is a black hole, and sooner or later they’re going to suck each one of us into it. But when they come for me, I'm going to take as many of them with me as I can.
