There is medical and dental, they're both expensive though. There are 4 different tiers of coverage with 'family' obviously being the most expensive.

Family is $540 a month which is definitely a lot in my opinion. There's a $500 deductible (an 80/20 split after the deductible has been met), with $1900 max out of pocket per person (or $3800 per family). Prescriptions are $10 and there is no co-pay for doctor visits.
There is a co-pay for emergency room visits and I think that's 100 bucks.

Greatest insurance in the world? No. Cheapest? No. But to say that it's 'worse than cobra' is simply ignorant. You either pay no attention to your coverage or you are still on your parents' plan.
