I'm sorry I was not as clear as I should have been - I have private insurance, which I opted to retain when I went to work for my current employer because the plan offered at work is not good. It costs him about $400 a month for each employee, and instead he just gives me a check for that much, which I use to defray the cost of a preferred PPO.
I'm of an age where I would not be able to get a much better deal than that. My brother is in the business and I know that for a fact.
