Separate
Why Mags?
Absolutely TOGETHER! Dental (teeth) and Opthalmologic (eyes) should all be covered under any general health insurance plan. The way plans are these days you almost need a different plan for every different condition. Since ALL conditions affect whether or not a person can put in a good days work any condition that might prevent this should be covered by health insurance. I wouldn't be able to concentrate on my work very well if I had a throbbing toothache; likewise if my eyeglasses got broken I couldn't see to do my work at all. Anything that affects a person's ability to work should be covered. Don't we pay enough for health insurance as it is??? I think we do, and because we pay so much everything should be covered.
I agree. We have universal health care with a small monthly premium. Dental and Optical are not included. I think it should be. My premium for two of us is $108 monthly with the physician of my choice. Most employers offer extended health which includes Dental and Optiical.
