While there is no guarantee that your health care needs will be the same this year it does give you another piece of data to help you with the decision. I'm not eligible for any HSA plans (no military retiree is) so my choice is Gold, Silver or DPMP (Tricare Prime does not work well if you're outside of a major met area).
