On a side note, the image of the rainbow was taken from my bike and close to where I live.
I couldn’t find the pot of gold on either side. It kept moving!
A few months ago there was a post and subsequent thread about how much healthcare insurance premiums might rise in 2015. There was even a suggestion that rates at Kaiser Permanente of California (my insurer) might go down for the same plan.
At the time I said I would have my plan quotes by late October. I promised to share them. I received my quotes today, so here you go:
2014 premium is $666 a month or about $8,000 a year.
2015 will be $964 a month or a little under $12,000 a year.
Quick math: an increase of about 44%. Higher when we factor in that co-pays are also rising along with decreased prescription benefits.
Perhaps Gruber and Obama planned to ding me via the Cadillac tax. Fits the percentage increase.
