yeah, it sucked when I found out that my ADD, allergy and Asthma meds were
going to cost upwards of
$150 a month, compared to the $50 I was paying before. I started taking
OTC allergy meds to save money, until I went back on my wife's coverage
BC Carefirst sux.
i've looke briefly at the sub co.'s benefits and they look good.

Subject: RE: Employee compensation
I worked for a smaller company last year that had a lot of administrative
problems, due to no one taking the time to set up the bennies the way a
big
corp does.
It really makes a huge difference. I am doing the same as you, hell for
the
same company :) The company I am subbed out to right now, and that I will
hopefully be direct hired by later this year, has a great bennie program.
