not stay on our insurance past 24 and they must be in school the entire time, no free flu shots either. We do get the preventive care thankfully. 8000 deductible...6000 before they pay a dime...and then 20% until we reach 8000 out of pocket. New job so we can suspend this insurance and take job insurance...cost us thousands the last couple of years.
