Most don't like the option but it is insurance.
Yeah, and they can have really high out of pocket maximums. I've seen some plans where you can have out of pocket maximums of $20K a year.(not specifically related to future SkyWest options)
They're really cheap, until you have a child or surgery. Then it's not so good.
