ironmonk Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Hey all, I thought I'd share some very feel good stuff for you about the new company that I've been at for about a month now.... it is great. The two owners are both practicing Catholics. Something else very cool, we are an health insurance company... one that does not pay for contraception or abortions. I also learned that in most cases, individual health insurance is cheaper than getting group insurance through most businesses. Someone under 30 and healthy could have health insurance for around $100/month.... a child around 3 is about $60/month. Other things that I learned about personal health insurance, that the only reason they can drop you is if you don't pay. They can only raise rates based on a state limit and age.... so once you have it, then you have it as long as you're able to pay. The company is the only the new health insurance company to start up in the past five years or so. A ton of doctors are backing it. One downside is that we are only in Florida, but we are in an expansion phase and are looking into entering other states. Check it out...

Amy wants to move after Joshua is born (early Nov) because she doesn't want to switch doctors or drive so far when he's ready to come out. I'm working on Rocky Point now, near the Airport... if you're down that way, let me know and we can do lunch. God Bless! ironmonk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] it's a piece of poo i could add baby girl and hubby for a mere $750/month. which is half of my monthly paycheck (roughly) umm, yeah, i'd like to be able to eat and pay my house payment and electricity and water and heat/cooling. but maybe that's just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starets Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 if it goes national, i'll let the abbot of Christ in the Desert know about it. the monks arent covered by health insurance because the premiums were too expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARGH!!! /hijack to complain about Church salary/benefits programs [/quote] My good friend/former-youth minister Chris complains all the time that the Church is all about being pro-life and having babies, but doesn't pay its employees enough to feed, clothe and house those babies. He's got 4 kids now (as of yesterday) and he's considering leaving the ministry and trying to find another job that pays better and has better benefits. It's sad....come on Church! Pay us right!
