Wow.....that's very reasonable compared to what we pay!
Believe me....we expected far worse and I think our HR department did as well when the talks first started. They actually told us to be prepared to see at least a 30% increase. We have an agency that wheels and deals on our behalf so I guess they've done good this year in comparison to what others are saying. On the same token, the last two years weren't too pleasant on the high deductible plans for us-- there was a lot of confusion, a lot of bills, a lot of money. When the pharmacy calls you and says um..."your perscription is $430 (maintenance meds) and your insurance isn't covering it" it hits your pocket book HARD.
