Our corporation changed insurance carriers last year. We switched from Anthem to United. Our fees went up, but the benefits and coverage went down. Now they are switching from Aflac to Standard. I'm super worried that we are getting screwed again

That sounds terrible to deal with. It really does hurt how much it seems like we are set up to fail when it only becomes harder and harder to get by as a teacher. I hope this turns out to be a chance for the better in your coverage but I've been burned too many times to expect it to be so.

Yeah, we got a 4.5% raise, but insurance went up 5%. Kinda stinks!

This sounds terrible, I'm so sorry. I work where I do because of the benefits. If they got worse, I would cause a stink.

Ugh I am so sorry to hear that OP. We switched as well but somehow got lucky and it was actually better insurance in my opinion.
