Question by Scott G: What’s the best health care available to full-time employees who receive benefits in the U.S.?
The plan my company offers is getting worse, even though our company grew last year and we were promised “better benefits.” I want some idea of how bad it really is out there and if large companies really do get better plans.

It depends on the company. Insurance companies are screwing patients by charging more and covering less, and screwing doctors by paying less even though our costs are going up.

My son has a great health plan. He works for a large DC corporation and has $ 100 deductible/$ 600 out-of-pocket maximum and he pays about $ 112/month toward it. I am self-employed and have a $ 1500 deductible and pay $ 700/month (family plan). I know I’ll never get back in benefits as much as I am spending, but I am afraid of what might happen if one of us had an accident.
