What country are you in if you don't mind?

I don't really know how it works in countries with better healthcare, but in the US you usually have to work fulltime to get any sort of benefits from your employer. And benefits through the marketplace (not through an employer) are generally expensive for what they offer.

Someone in the US would need to make quite a bit to be able to do part time.

I’m in the US and I pay about $550 a month for health insurance. I’m a 34 year old white male. I factored the cost of insurance in to my bill rate when negotiating this position.

Maybe some day we’ll get universal health care.
