Just received the 2022 open enrollment. All I can say is wow , hard to sell that lack of insurance to any potential new hire. I’m surprised more people don’t leave after seeing those numbers.

Has anyone compared our plan to a private plan that isn’t horrible? Im curious about cost comparison
This should be a bigger topic. When Windstream took over EarthLink - the cost of insurance went up 50percent. EarthLinks insurance was lame also - but it had a lower deductible and covered 90percent instead of ws best 80.
WS keeps raising insurance prices while reducing benefits. Sc--w this place.
Gotta pay Lil T’s over compensation package somehow.
That monthly contribution and the insurance doesnt cover ANYTHING. I’ve never seen insurance not pay anything towards prescriptions. I’ve never hit my deductible, but run up $3k in prescription bills a year for a few simple monthly scripts. Started using GoodRx and not using insurance, , scripts are far cheaper. Next year I go insurance free, I pay them monthly and they dont cover a dime of my medical expenses.
How much did it go up? I haven't been paying much attention. Figured I'd see it soon enough.
I am on my wife’s plan because Windstream “insurance” isn’t insurance at all. It’s nothing more than catastrophic coverage at best. When I stop using Windstream so-called insurance 3 1/2 years ago, I was extremely happy because it covered nothing……and that was their “best” plan.
