Yes, my plan sucks. I'm doing some contracting right now and work through KForce. I get paid well, which is nice, but the benefits definitely blow chunks. It's through Aetna and I have a $2,800 in-network deductible and $5,600 out of network deductible. And my medical/dental/vision premium is about $200 a week.
