My wife is a teacher in Wake County, and we've learned that it's far
cheaper for my son and I to be independently insured through Blue
Cross' BlueAdvantage program than to be added to her insurance
package.
The two of us, my son and I, are being charged ~$190/mo for what I
consider to be pretty good coverage. We make the yearly cost back in
a few doctor visits, drug benefits and the piece of mind in knowing
that if I get hit by a car while riding my bike we won't be
financially ruined.
Things may be different for you, Colleen, because you're a woman and
so are inherently more expensive to insure. That's not a value
judgement, just an insurance reality. Also, if we were to forgo my
wife's insurance from the state and add her to our plan, our plan
would more than double. So there's that.
Anyhoo, you can get a rate quote online at
