Medical insurance

Can anyone tell me what the cost of health and dental insurance is per month at Echotrade? Is there a waiting period to get insured once you join the firm?

220-250 for single

Why not just call the Echo offices. They don't bite. They'll even give you the correct answer.

Would the amounts differ from state to state?

sdtrader · Jul 19, 2002

yes they differ. just give them a call

if you are in florida you can buy Blue Cross/Blue Shield as a healthy single male 80/20 plan for about $100 a month last time I checked.

You can get "catastrophic" coverage ($1500 deductible, PPO) for $36/month/person with Regence Blue Shield in WA. I figure that I'm making enough to cover basic doctor/dentist visits...
