Gotta love Louisiana Health Care
We have just been notified of our insurance premium adjustment for our yearly renewal. Thank God the Sheriff pays for the employee and that my wife recently obtained employment with us.
United Health Care
Employee $667.85 monthly (paid by the Sheriff)
Spouse $575.32 monthly out of pocket
Children $362.05 monthly out of pocket
Spouse & Children $937.46 monthly out of pocket

WOW...that is crazy. Glad I don't have kids or a spouse with that kind of out of pocket expenses. How the heck are you supposed to pay that on a cop salary?????

I am not sure what our plans cost, the city pays for it, the union picks up dental, eye exams/glasses and prescription. The city has many employees and a few health plans to offer, the basic ones has minimal monthly fees, mostly for a high option rider. (The higher end plans can cost several hundred dollars a month) Coverage is for the employed and the family.
Are those state wide rates. They sound very high, does not seem like they are group rates, part of a larger company or agency. (The larger the company or agency the lower the rates)
Heath care is so expensive but you can not do with out it. (although there are plenty who do not have it and are well cared for, on the taxpayers dime)

You need to give up those 4 hours you sleep at night and get yourself another detail, you little slacker.

What happened to this thread? I thought it was about your out rages insurance and no it seems to have turned into some kind of liaison.

Before I left the Sheriff's Dept our insurance co-pay was 80/20 We paid the 80% the insurance picked up the 20% after the deductible was paid. I forget what the deductible was cause it had just gone up in October and I left in November.
My dad, I miss him every day.

He's going to be too busy working extra details to pay for his insurance to have a liaison.
