Cheap never equals better in the world of health insurance. I'm a 41 year old bloke and my insurance (via Aviva) works out at around $250 a month but it does include medivac if necessary.

Best to up your deductible rather than lower your benefits.. Mine is like $2000 and it keeps the price reasonable. All my out of pocket stuff/year is 1/10 of that.
Re: which is your health insurance?
Increase your deductible, AND make use of no claim bonuses. Healthcare is so cheap here, you need insurance only for really serious cases.
(And make sure outpatient medication is covered. My friend got some rare illness, and now must pay $10000 for medicine from his own pocket each year...)

What's so good about Aetna, and how much do you pay per annum, if I may ask?
Re: which is your health insurance?
We pay about $5500 p.a. for the Aetna Ultracare Select plan for 2 adults 2 kids (that includes 20 or 25% no claims bonus).
I'll look up more exact figures later.

I'm a gambler, no health insurance for me. My gamble lost big time. ~20k in medical fees
