Looking for an employer that offers good health insurance

[RNbellashadow]

Hi, I am willing to switch jobs for GOOD HEALTH INSURANCE. I don't have any medical issues but I do want good health insurance. (My employer offers a terrible, very high deductible plan). I am an RN. Can anybody suggest employers in Ohio that offer nurses excellent health insurance? Thank you!

In Cleveland you have the Cleveland Clinic and MetroHealth. UH benefits arent horrible but they are not the best either. In Columbus I hear OSU has the best benefits in Columbus.

Maybe you should tell us what features you are looking for in a health insurance plan? Personally, I wouldn't mind a plan with a higher deductible if it were considerably cheaper and/or provided better coverage for really expensive, big needs.

Different people have different needs and preferences. What are yours?

I'd like a plan that pays for most of a doctor visit when I"m sick. I don't mind a copay.... just not a multi-thousand dollar deductible! I'm more than willing to stay within a network. I just want insurance to cover most of an injury or illness. It would be nice if it covered two dental cleanings per year. I don't smoke and lead a healthy lifestyle. I don't think that is asking too much.... Thanks!

Sounds like you would want the Cleveland Clinic.

Is anybody else bothered by the fact that nurses, who risk their own health -- and backs -- caring for sick people are rewarded with horrible insurance???? It really bothers me.

I've always thought I had pretty good insurance ... but then, I don't live in your region.

In Columbus, OSU and OhioHealth have the best benefits.
