I would like to get your opinion regarding the wisdom of cancer insurance in my situation. DH is a retired career teacher in a second career. When he no longer works full time and we need to get health insurance thru the teacher's retirement plan he will receive a reduced health insurance premium. As his spouse, I will pay full price. One plan has a premium of $486 for me but should I get cancer, they only pay up to $3000 for drugs and then it must come out of pocket. The more expensive plan would cost $967 a month but would cover the full amount of any cancer drugs. When my husband got his current job, he bought cancer insurance for the both of us from Colonial for $100 a month total. I had read prior to that that cancer insurance was a waste and had cautioned against it but he prevailed and we have gotten much of our premiums back in "wellness benefits". Now I am thinking that perhaps cancer insurance would solve the dilemma. I could get the lower premium health care and fill in the gap with cancer insurance. Any thoughts? TIA!
