Has anyone ever successfully received a deductible credit on their new insurance plan when they switch employers? I'd be going from UHC to UHC. Thanks!

I honestly didn't even know that was a thing....Now I'm wondering as I recently switched jobs. I didn't know they did that.

Great question! Hope you get some answers- I’m in the same boat and it’s just another reason that I’m not a fan of the employer provided health insurance structure we have in the US.

I've already hit my OOPM due to surgeries. I'll have to continue physical therapy for several months and really don't want to pay for that still. 🤕

I know nothing about this (sorry!) But could you ask the new employer for a sign on of the amount of the deductible/out of pocket number?

Good idea! I talked to UHC and it sounds like it's up to the new employer if they'll allow the credit.
