[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH is a partner at a law firm so no subsidy for his health insurance.  It would cost us $4500 per month for our family of 5 (no idea what the deductible would be).

I work full time and health insurance through my work is $600 per month for Anthem BC/BS with a $3000 deductible.  Its a no brainer to keep working for me. DH makes $700K a year and I make $150K a year.  Totally worth it. [/quote]

This is us too. I work for the healthcare. It’s so odd that we tie healthcare to jobs in this country.[/quote]

We should not tie healthcare to a job.  It's a basic human right.

Have been lucky to always have good coverage for reasonable price at work.  we currently pay $600/month for full family coverage (medical/dental/vision)--thats employee, spouse and as many kids as you have.  That's with $2.5K family deductible (1.25K per person) and the first $1.5K is funded by the company.  That plan would cost us $2.4K on Cobra.  So company covers $1.8K/month.  That's ~$23K in benefits for just medical (dental is great coverage, no copay for cleanings and once per year X-rays, vision is new lenses and frames every year and yearly vision check).  Add in those and multiply by 4-5 and you have almost $30K in benefits.
