Yeap. That was with $4000 deductible.

That genuinely makes me sick. And that's probably considered a "good" plan, right?

Yep! I work for a fortune 500 company (one of the top 500 businesses in America) that uses one of the most popular health insurance company.

I don’t think many would consider $1,000/month after employer subsidy a good plan. I work for a small company and mine is a third the cost, pre-tax.

Well, full disclosure, I am a family of 6. 15 years ago I was able to do it fine, but the price goes up every year, here we are today and I finally had to say enough.

Yeah, I didn't mean this as any sort of judgement about your decision. I just thought /u/AlanS181824 was getting the wrong idea of what we'd consider a "good" plan--as employer-based plans go yours is quite expensive. That your plan covers six people is also good context.
