No.

We have blue cross/shield here in OK. (2 adults mid 30s with no health problems and 3 healthy kids) Costs us $275 a month for $15 co-pay and a $5,000 deductible. However, we've had 3-4 trips to the doctor since starting it in June and so far they have found a technicality to get out of paying their share of the Dr visit every time. We are in the process of looking around again ourselves since they aren't wanting to pay their share (which is really irritating since they've gotten a little over 2 grand out of us so far in premiums).

If you have any voice at all to your employer about this, beg and plead for them to keep the insurance. As you get older your premiums WILL go up regardless of how healthy you are. Also, with your employer providing insurance as opposed to you getting a raise then buying it yourself, you are saving $ on income tax and social security/FICA taxes because your income is less. You income goes up with the raise, so will your taxes.
