How much does it cost for COBRA health insurance for a family of four?

∙ 12y ago
As of 8/2011 a health policy for a family of 4 in the U.S. costs between $5,000 and $6,000 per quarter. That's $2,000 per month. That is equivalent to a home mortgage payment on a $200,000.00 home.
That is a figure based on a HIGH deductible. If you want a low deductible plan on spending significantly more per month on the policy. Being a HIGH deductible, you pay 100% of your medical bills till you hit your individual deductible (per individual covered, not accumulative as a family) Then they will pay 80% of the bills THEY DECIDE are acceptable to pay.
It's a ripoff! don't do it. Make payments until this problem is resolved (nowhere close to that occurring)

If you retire and have cobra insurance from a previous employer and get a new job with insurance can you still keep your cobra insurance and which insurance is the primary insurance?
COBRA insurance is a guarantee that your health insurance is portable when you leave the job. It is now private insurance where you are paying for it. The cost is probably higher than the employer provided insurance so you would want to look at the 2 carefully and determine which would be most economical. It does not make sense to pay for two policies. If your new job pays for (some of) the insurance dump your COBRA.
