In a normal somewhat healthy year you save huge because of the premium difference.
The problem is that the insurance companies in the country have made insurance so confusing that most people don't take the time to educate themselves on how their coverage works and what exactly they're paying for.
Btw the company being able to raise our share by 7% whether the plan cost goes up or not is BS
So I am just looking at this now for my family. There has to be a down side to this right? It seems silly to get another plan otherwise.
At face value it seems even if we have a "bad year" as you say we still come in under the amount we would have paid in premiums for the posb plan.
This is all assuming we don't change our habits of pretty much only going to medical services for illness, injury and check ups
