I was talking about the terms of the health insurance policy. If they put a cap of $100,000 on it, no mental health, no vision, and a high deductible, I can either live with it, or pay my employers share and get a policy on the open market.

I am a healthy person, so I take the risk, but I know that I would go bankrupt if I had to go to the hospital for a week or two.
