Re: Healthcare costs
My company insurance is in the $35 range per pay period this year... I think it's like $40 range next year.
but I jumped ship and when with DH's insurance which is even cheaper.
I heard of all the increases going on though.. but wow some of you pay insane amounts!!!
My coworker's fathers company did something kind of cool... I thought. They actually LOWERED insurance for MOST of the employees and raised it based on those making more than I THINK 100k a year. I forget the exact amount... but basically the higher paid workers are paying more and the lower paid workers are paying a little less (it's not like astronomically less but still less).

Re: Healthcare costs
I am very lucky. My dh's insurance doesn't cost a penny, even for a family plan. The copay is $10.

I would feel extremely uncomfortable about this whether I made less or more than $100K. Making less, I would feel awful that some of my coworkers were paying more to make the cost less for me. I would feel like a charity case. And if I were over the limit - I wouldn't be too happy about the set-up either.
It's just me and DH and I think we pay about $120/month or something.

That's how a lot of the bigger firms do their plans. It's tiered by salary. Both my and my DH's company does this.

Re: Healthcare costs
I pay nothing but I work for a city (of NY) agency. We get vision and dental coverage through our union, but if I don't see a union dentist (which I prefer not to because I like my dentist) so I pay out of pocket for DH and I on that.
Perscriptions the co-pay is no more than $30 if the medication is covered. When I was using diabetic meds, I was covered through healthcare (as opposed to the seperate perscription plan) so I paid nothing for that out of pocket.
DH on the other hand, before he went on my benefits was paying $100.00 per month and it was not so bad because it included almost everything- there were small co-pays here and there but nothing extravagant.
When we have children, it will cover them as well.
