This depends on your company's benefits program. Some companies have really good program such as MS, Google. My company is also very good:no out-of-pocket money, no copay. As far as I know,for most companies,if you have your family member elect the medical+vision+dental plan, you need to pay additional $100-$200 per person.I just saw this data last week:) Also, benefits are more expensive in northeast than the rest of the U.S.

现在的医疗保险越来越贵，employers的对策一是增加premium, 二是减少coverage/benefit, 情况就是如此。。。mm以前的学校如果是州立的， ta/ra算是state employee, 很多benefit是state来compensate, 并非学校，所以比起公司当然好了

but $400 (already the cheapest one) is really expensive... one year will be around $5000. is not it too much? glad we do not have kid, otherwise, the cheapest one will be $700....

are you sure you have to pay $400 per MONTH rather than per YEAR?That's too much!! We pay about $30 per month, including dental and vision.

it is expensive, for family coverage(spouse and kids) $400/month is reasonable. I used to pay no premium for medical/vision/dental to cover my husband and myself when I was with my previous employer. The only thing we can say is employers are different...
