31. How amazing is it?

You don't have copay?
Can you go to any provider, or only those in the plan?
Do you have limits in the coverage?
Does it include Dental? When I say dental I mean not limited to just "teeth cleaning"
If you have dental, does it cover braces, and other procedures that may be needed, such as surgery, etc.?
Is your insurance given to you by your employer, and can you stay on it if you switch jobs?
Will your insurance be available when you retire and still your employer pay what they pay for you?
I have to assume that your insurance pays for preventive medicine?

There are many other questions that could be asked, but if you answer yes to all of the above then of course you should keep it.

Last thing, with what Sanders and Warren are proposing you would not loose this wonderful insurance.
