1. Hi! May I offer a thought?

Hi,

I’m sorry that the premiums are skyrocketing. You mentioned that you have two adult children on your policy.
Before you remove them from your employee policy , do a bit of analysis:

1) ask your adult children if they can chip in $100 or more . Perhaps they can if they work part-time
2) have your children check the cost for insurance through the ACA health exchange or your staate’s portal
3) if your kids are in college, have them check if their college may have some options to suggest.

Best wishes to you and your family.
