But, a BIG BUTT :D,

If there is an extra ER visit or other Physician visits that inch upward our medical expenses for 2015 by a few hundred dollars as compared to 2014, it would be best to use the GOLD HSA.

GOLD HSA<---Higher premiums ($310/mos) but much lower deductible ($2600) and out of pocket Expenses ($2600+$5000=$7600). Also add your premiums to this for true expense.
**Delta will add $1600 to my HSA while I add another $421/month to equal the IRS limit of $6650.

Last year, it made complete sense to pick Diamond. This year, I pick Gold HSA for an insurance policy because the kids are more active.

If you are confident of your "good" health then the new BRONZE is the way to go.

Silver HSA: I assume this is just for employee so the Coinsurance is $2500 plus the deductible $2600=$5100 Max out of pocket plus premiums.

Family Silver HSA is $5000 coinsurance max plus $7800 deductible = $12800 Max out of pocket plus premiums.

IN NETWORK for Both^^^^^^


Did you compare those to the DPMP? Looks like it may be a good option if you expect a lot of medical visits.

deductable $700 + max expenses $4,000. Premiums are higher though.

I did. DPMP was more expensive for my situation.

Yall can shoot mountains?






The VFD is that desktop systems/procedures simulator they sent us for 717 training. There is one for most all of the fleet. Some are just AP/FMS trainers and then some like the 717/747/756/320 (basically the rest of the fleet) allow you to operate everything in the cockpit.

And you can do it from your home computer. It's nice to study without the distractions of the training center.
