What about the most Cadillac of all plans for Congress and Federal workers? Here’s an excerpt from an article at NPR about their current plan:
“FEHBP provides coverage without regard to pre-existing conditions or age. There are no waiting periods for coverage.
The most common plan, the Blue Cross Blue Shield Standard option for federal workers, set deductibles this year at $300 for individuals and $600 for families. It limits out-of-pocket expenses to $5,000 per family for services from preferred health care providers and $7,000 overall.
On average, the government pays 72 percent of premiums.
The monthly cost to the worker for the Blue Cross Blue Shield Standard plan is $152.06 for an individual and $356.59 for a family.”
