What if your partner gets in that car crash, or your kid has an expensive birth defect? Expensive care is a matter of time, not a matter of luck. It really makes me uncomfortable as well that timing or location (or employment) seem to matter.
- kmonsen 6y agoYour full family is covered yes. My wife was covered before we were married as well, being in a stable relationship was enough. And yes agree I would like healthcare to be not tied to employment.

The main issue is if you have no job, when you live you are offered what is called I think Cobra that will keep you on a similar plan. I’ve heard from coworkers that left, sometimes not voluntarily, that it is not cheap at all. California also has decent options for private insurance.
