Which regional has the best health insurance package at the moment, keeping into account cost and coverage for pre-existing conditions.

It's a major determining factor for some of us with dependents who have health issues that are complex.

Don't know about pre existing conditions, but awac has one of the best insurance packages in the airlines.

Anyone hear any more news that PSA will be opening an ORD base? I know the rumor mill was abuzz with the company looking to move to Chicago. I'd be all over it, too.

Won't happen in the near future. DCA is where it's at right now

I don't think that matters if your buying insurance though your company. There are no forms asking any questions about anything. I think that matters if you quit and let coverage drop and try to buy your own policy.

This is correct. A group policy offered through an employer is restricted from considering pre-conditions for the pricing. It is a group payment plan with hard prices based off family size.

Good info. Is it realistic to expect to pay around $300-400 for family coverage (5 total).

Is it not an easy job at another regional for more pay and better QOL? I mean...we are all doing the same job...
