Employer-subsidized insurance is no longer what it used to be, at least from my former megacorp. Just got my enrollment paperwork for 2016 and the premium is up nearly $100/month to over $400/month and the deductible and OOP max also went up slightly. But compared to what's available out on the market, it's still decent. My big concern is out-of-network as I still travel a good bit and also like the option to go to a specialist not in network. None of the marketplace plans offer out-of-network coverage, and a quick look at ehealthinsurance.com found only one that offers anything more than emergency care.
Dealing with the underlying cost issues in US medical care is way overdue, IMHO.
