UHC made a health insurance pitch to my job site. (lemmy.world)

So UHC came to my job to pitch their plans for the employer health insurance. They wanted something like $1400/mo and I guess enough people complained because a new email just came up for $1000/mo.

For family plans

I only have my wife and I covered in my employer insurance plan and it's about $80 biweekly. And I have the highest coverage. I'm Canadian.

My wife and I are both healthy and middle ages but that sounds ridiculously expensive.

When I lived in the US, I was in my 20s and had no healthcare needs, with the exceptions of birth control, an off brand adhd medication, and regular appointments to get the latter prescription. I paid $13k a year for health insurance, for which I had to pay for the first $3k of my medical bills every year.
