So I have a insurance policy through my school district right now. The only reason I got it for my wife and I was because she lost her qualifying status for Medicare once we got married. Before that I relied on VA care, which is perfectly fine in my area, Amarillo being my main facility.
We are now in a situation where her ex husband has gotten a new job and will be providing health insurance for my oldest step daughter and we will be required to provide health insurance for the youngest. I am currently paying 700 dollars a month for a high insurance option that I don't need and neither of us have used in the past year. So here are my thoughts, I can cancel my health care plan, rely on my VA care (I am 90% rated) and my wife/step daughter can get a private health care plan.. does my thinking make sense? A little shopping around and it would be cheaper for the two of them then having all three of us on a plan that I don't need to be on (only reason I'm on one is because I had to be so that she could have insurance through my employer).
Thoughts?
