Question by : Can I opt out of an employer’s health insurance coverage if they stop paying their share of it?
In January, my employer is making me pay for 100% of my health insurance. They also dropped vision and dental. I am one of the only young people in the firm, and I don’t want to be forced to pay a higher premium for reduced coverage. I quoted the most comprehensive plan I could find for me as an individual (including vision/dental), and it’s $ 200 less a month. Can I drop the firm’s insurance and just get my own?

Question by Jimbo: What will happen if insurance companies are allowed to sell health insurance across state lines?
My friend said that all the insurance companies would just move to South Dakota, because that is the state with the weakest consumer protection laws, and then they could sell insurance nationwide and ignore the laws of the other 49 states.
