That's why you say no to concessions kids.

PSA
~ $110-120/month in premiums for a single - works out to around 33% premium and total cost share with anthem BCBS as the holder. The company is self-insured
-$500/$1000 deductible/max out of pocket
-includes dental but no vision
-rx are low cost and co-pays are good considering various services
-Anther plan/option available with a lower deductible/max out of pocket and higher premium, but higher overall cost when factoring in the combined cost of higher premiums and hitting the lower deductible.
-Part of the concessions PSA took in the summer of 2013 included raising the pilot's share of health care costs from around 25% to 35%
Regionals with the best health care plans are;
Horizon
Expressjet
Air Wisconsin
The worst are;
Mesa (worst CBA)
Skywest (no CBA)
Health Insurance and 401K at PSA are middle of the road at best.

I'm a new FO and if I took the insurance, I'd be having to pay them $$ to work here. I don't have figures in front of me, I need to dig them up again, but once I glanced at it, I knew I wasn't gaining to make the $$ to even think about it.

That's absolutely criminal! I find this astounding and can't believe this hasn't been talked about more! With the abysmal pay and sky high premiums what keeps someone there?
