Then the 80/20 kicks in for another $500 so the max out of pocket for an individual is $3250. It looks to me under the 2015 plan the deductible is NOT counted towards the max out of pocket so the 80/20 now applies to $2500 (instead of $500 like 2014). Making the max out of about $5000 for the year. I'm talking similar plans from year to year.
Am I wrong?
Much overlooked and in dire need of repair. Basically worthless unless you have a major event.
IMO management should put $4000 a year in all pilot's HSAs and the unused portion rolled to the next year.
IMO pilots who don't use the company health plan should be provided 75% of what the company would otherwise be paying in premiums for that employee so as to provide fair compensation across the group. I put it in my survey. I'm guessing I'll see it in a TA somewhere down the road just like the CDOs showed up in one, except you actually heard about this idea before you read it in an DALPA TA announcement.
