I'm tired of my employer choosing my health insurance benefits. I want to choose them. Especially since all of my employers over the last 18 years owned health insurance plans so I have had no real options or choices at all.

Dee, I see this as more of a problem of government intervention in benefit decisions than anything else. Politicians with agendas choosing our benefits= no good. Unfortunately I think this is just an appetizer of things to come.
Would a health reimbursement account allow you to choose what benefits you receive?
