California Health Insurance Reviews

Health insurance can be expensive in California and it can be confusing because of so many different offerings. Below you will see some of our client reviews on health insurance in California.

Anthem Blue Cross of California Health Insurance Review

Anthem Lumenos HSA 1500/3000
 
My family, two adults and one child, is covered under the Anthem Lumenos HSA 1500/3000, which my husband receives through his job in the private sector in Sacramento, California. His employer pays his premium, and covers a spouse and immediate children within the group. No portion of the family premium is paid by his employer. We participate in a tax-advantaged health savings account to lessen our overall medical costs over the course of the year. Our deductible for the family plan is $3000 per annum, or $5000 if we end up with more than $2000 in prescription fees in a year. We pay a family plan premium of roughly $550.00 a month.

A major advantage to this health insurance plan is there is only one deductible, which covers all medical costs. Once the deductible is met, we pay nothing for anything else for the rest of the year. With this plan, we know how much we are going to pay long before we even go to the hospital or doctor’s office, as long as we take the time to do the math or contact a customer service agent to ensure that a visit or procedure will be covered. On that note, our plan’s customer service is straightforward and I have never had to wait for a telephone representative. Many doctors and practices are covered under our plan; it would be difficult to even find a healthcare professional who would be considered out-of-network.

The plan embodies a high deductible, which could become overwhelming on a lower-middle class salary should there be an emergency. The premium cost per person is high, over one-fifth of my husband’s monthly salary. While we are grateful to have insurance coverage should we need a medical procedure or a yearly check-up, our dream of one day owning a home will never come to fruition while we pay this high premium and deductible.

Overall, we are satisfied with the plan. In fact, I just went to the doctor for a yearly check-up yesterday. After calling Anthem to make sure that my doctor is still covered, I went to the office, signed in, was not required to make a co-pay, and waited for my turn to see the doctor. I expect a statement of benefits from Anthem California in about three weeks, and around one week after that, I will receive my doctor’s bill; the cost of the visit will be no surprise.
