It's time to renew insurance as the Starbucks benefit year starts in October. I knew the prices would increase some but HOLY CRAP some of them skyrocketed. I'm going to have to crunch some numbers over the next week to figure out what I want to do.
So here are the numbers from this last year. I went with Cigna Platinum so I was paying $137 per paycheck. I was thinking of downgrading to Cigna Gold in October because it's significantly less per paycheck and I really wouldn't need it for much other than normal stuff. (sorry the picture is hard to see...)
Now here are the new prices...
Not sure how well you can see that but what costs me $137 now would cost me $394 in October!!!!! That's more than double the cost! And if I drop to gold, I'll still be paying $50 more per paycheck than I am now so that's out of the question. I'll either have to go to silver, or choose a different provider. I may do both since Cigna is now the most expensive option. It's so weird that last time Cigna was the cheapest! I've really loved having Cigna and they've been great to work with so I hesitate to switch, but for those prices, I'm almost certain I will.
