Medical Plan Estimator - How It Works For You

For many people, cost is one of the key factors in choosing a medical plan. The Medical Plan Estimator is specially designed to help you estimate that cost - looking at both:

• What you are likely to pay for the services and supplies you need during the year
• The amount that comes out of your retirement check when you enroll in the Sandia Medical Plans.

You can work with the version of the estimator that best fits you - based where you live. Just select a version below and start!

Health Care Costs on the Rise Nationally

Rising health care costs have been making headlines for the past several years. On average in the US, health care premiums have tripled in the last 10 years and are expected to increase at double-digit rates for the next three to five years. You, as a health care consumer, are paying more for health care coverage and are being asked to pay more of the bill when you use physicians and hospital services.

Sandia expects costs to continue to rise - and the best thing we can do is work together to help manage these rising costs. You can help by being a better health care consumer by Choosing Well (choose the right plan), Using Well (using health care services wisely), and Living Well (living a healthy lifestyle). Remember, smart decisions for better health start with you!
