New Insurance Plan Coming

So yeah, I'm using the blog to pass info along...mostly because in the past I don't know how to get messages through the best way!

Just signed up for next year's medical/dental/vision plan.  It will still be covering Emily, Sarah, Daniel, Erin and Ethan.  But let me step back a moment. This insurance year ends June 30th, so if you need to get stuff done, its easier on the wallet now than in July.

Last year, just after I'd signed up for the high deductible plan (because, how often to I ever go to a doc??) is when my cancer/surgery schtuff all came on to the scene. So I'm still paying that all off for another couple of years. The silver lining though is that when Sarah's eye business came along, most of the deductibles had already been paid down, so it cost her less than it might have otherwise.

So to reiterate, ya'all listed are on Cigna health and dental care and VSP vision care.  I have all the info (somewhere) if you need more copies.  There's also benefits to prescriptions and such.

Next year (July 1st) we'll have an average (80/20, vs the 70/30 of last year) deductible plan (using my huge 1.2% annual salary raise to cover the better coverage rate). Medical will stay through Cigna, Dental will be through Aetna and Vision will stay through VSP.  I will forward copies of cards and such to each of you IF you'll forward me your current addresses.  And while you're at it, send me your current phone numbers too.  Thanx.

Oh, and make sure you read the below.....
