In general we find that the high deductible plans typically only make sense if you are young, healthy or wealthy. When setup right a high deductible plan couples with a HSA can really save money on health insurance premiums while providing a nice tax break. Most people rush into buying health insurance because they do not want to spend a few hours getting comfortable with the various plan options and confusing terms. A few hours on the front end can really help in making sure that you get a plan that is both afforable and meets your needs.

The simple fact that the system is so complicated and confusing is a testiment to why we need some reform to the system.

Thanks for the guide though. My employer offers nothing short of 14 plans.

Good look into deductibles and co-pays. In my opinion, on less risky things, a higher deductible is the way to go. If you save some of the money as the previous commentor said, you can save up in case something happens. If it doesn’t, the money is all yours.
