Our premiums didn't go up either. Imagine that.

What does the price of the insurance that she privately purchases have to do with anyones "share." There is no "share." I didn't think it was possible to make less sense than you already have, but there you go...

Oooh so your boss is paying the extra premiums, and I suppose you don't think that has any negative ramifications on his ability to hire more employees

What a utopia world you live in...

Um. the insurance companies rebate amount is based upon of your share you pay into the overpayment that needs to be reimbursed to the insurers..

Gosh, what a stupid posting.

Don't you realize that most employers pay a portion of the health insurance for their employees?

Why is that a utopia world. Are you jealous or something to say that. You know sometimes good people just want to treat their employees as good people as well.

Or they were able to negotiate a better price. We added more employees, and we got a better price per employee when we did. The part you're also leaving out is that the healthcare exchanges under Obamacare haven't even kicked in yet, and that premiums have been going up EVERY year for the last decade with or without Obamacare. If the premiums continue to rise once Obamacare kicks in for a year, then you can continue with your usual high drama whining, but lets get the program running before we start screaming that it's the end of the world, shall we?

Gee, thats strange, A few postings back you said that you banked the premiums rather than paying. Now you have catastrophic insurance.

Which is it?
