Well, it couldn't happen to a more prepared individual.
That tax math might prove compelling. Good thing is you don't have to choose now, and even when you do, you can change your mind.Taking health insurance through DW's plan also has the benefit of being entirely paid pre-tax, whereas I believe COBRA would only be deductible to the extent medical expenses exceed [-]7.5%[/-] 10% of AGI (and that assumes what's left is more than the standard deduction).
