I have a question for my American self-employed people. How much is your private health insurance per month?

I pay around $110 CAD for mine and it includes drugs, vision, doctors visits etc. I need to add on dental but it should only be another $20-30 a month.

🕯️They/them. Scaled cos from 0-$300k in arr, 7-35 employees, 0-100k users. Now I make candles that give people love, joy, and delight at humankind.place

Depends on the state, depends on coverage, depends on family size, depends on your risk tolerance.

My friends are paying upwards of $2k/mo for 2+2 kids in Tennessee.

Could probably get away with a couple hundo for minimal coverage if you're young and risk tolerant, or x5 that on the other extreme. $500/mo is fairly average.

I think I heard for a family it’s around $1k? Which makes sense

idk but im expecting thousands of dollars

Mikayla and I use the marketplace in a custom plan, and we pay about $500/month.

Deductible is $5000 for both of us per year.

But I found out the hard way that it doesn’t cover ENT, so we’ll be switching for 2026.

A lot more. Especially if you got a family.
