PPO with moderate deductibles.

Are they doing individual or group plans?

And sorry, this wasn’t SF proper, though when I managed a plan for 30+ employees in SF it was about $1500/per. That was high deductible with a roll-over HSA match. The broker was helpful in giving us a decent menu to choose from.

$1,500 for an individual HDHP is way on the high end, even for SF. Was the group full of 60 year olds? If it’s young people, it should be in the $500 range at most.

This was the quickest data I could find:

Also, what is a rollover HSA match? Any HSA contributions don’t come from the insurance company so I don’t see why that would affect the premium.

Thanks for the clarification, they’re on individual plans outside of CA, so probably not an apples to apples comparison.
