Yes, we are among the fortunate few to have insurance that continued into retirement as well - it has served us really well. A few years ago I switched to a plan with even better Rx coverage, and one of my husband's meds, which had a $135/mo copay is now $50 for 3 months. What a blessing not to be like many who have to choose between their meds and food or utilities - we are very grateful.

Truthfully I don't regard it as good fortune. When I left that career, I left thousands of dollars in the pension fund. Most people take it out. I returned to that career so that I could retire early and enroll in the pension program. I had my own practice by then and there was no Obamacare and health insurance cost was outrageously expensive without a group. While it was a really hard two years, it was one of my best decisions because I have the benefits of the pension and its great health insurance plan which I had contributed to for 20 years.
