KPMG - what health plan would you choose if you had a baby due early next year?

Not at KPMG but get a PPO/POS product - better to pay more in premiums and have a known cost of coverage vs a high deductible plan with lower costs but potentially high out of pocket expenses.

Choose the plan with the highest maternity coinsurance (ex 80-100%) for maternity related features, lower copayments on hospital stays, etc.

In general PPOs are the richest plans unless you live in an area with an HMO network (California and the west)

Map it out - you might be surprised. I have three kids and the cheapest plan is best for us with low or high expenses. There are small windows in the middle where each of the other plans make sense. The premiums are so much higher on the top plan I can max out my HSA and still come out ahead in most cases.

If your due date is early in the year it probably tilts towards the ppo option

We had a baby on the high deductible plan and it was pretty painless. We contributed to our HSA and PwC contributed some too and that covered everything out of pocket. Depends on your plan but I wouldn’t discount the high deductible off the bat

Seems that the vaccine that usually takes more than 10 years to develop, test for side effects and go through the regulation process is being very fast tracked to roll out - which is a super great thing to potentially eradicate the virus. on the other side of the spectrum, people with life sciences n healthcare insights, how reliable and safe would you say vaccine (being fast tracked) is...?

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid."

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.
