And, dang, 400 or 500 a month for family coverage is damn good in Oregon. I'm currently W-2 through a contracting agency and I pay over $800 a month, as my contribution, for a high deductible plan. I like the HSA option for pre-tax deductions, but still, even with an employer contribution and being part of a large group, I pay through the nose. These rates would be equivalent or cheaper than what I get through my employer.
