All US full time positions include health insurance, the insurance included with a good software job is, in my experience, miles and miles better than the one I now get in Scandinavia.

The question is would you keep the job and as consequence the insurance if you get seriously ill?

That’s great until you get laid off. The added stress of job hunting while also hoping nothing happens to your health until you’re fully employed again can’t be easy.

The disability insurance that was included with my US job was significantly better than the one I have now.

If I was let go I would retain health coverage through COBRA.

Let’s be clear: The US health system is a shit show, it’s just not - mostly - one that impacts high salaried employees (if it did it would have changed long ago..)

Include health insurance … for hospitals and doctors who are in network.

Do you have the wits to determine a all times what hospital you can go to and still get it covered by insurance? Even with a broken femur and a concussion?
