My solution is to transition from COBRA to carrying it as a policy held for me on my own C corp. Then transition back to COBRA if necessary. I will post details of that as I complete the transition, preliminary research indicates ~$300/month premium. But I am a low-maintenance guy, YMMV. As someone else noted, using a high deductible and HRA/HSA is a very good way to approach this problem. "High deductible" isn't really all that high anyway. I think it's order $1200 for a single person. The tax benefit of HSA/HRA make this worthwhile. This is exactly the kind of thing we should be having a workshop on. Look for something scheduled at Hat Factory in April. -dave d --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Coworking" group.
