If you receive HC benefits paid by your employer, you will pay income tax on the value above $15k a year. But if your employer pays you increased wages and you buy your own insurance, then you can write off the entire amount.
I see. My only concern is that, as I get older, health care needs will increase and health care plans provided through work have been continually eroding over the last 20+ years.
