I've often been told by various medical, dental etc offices that Shells coverage is the best they have seen.

+ Deductibles are small; I think it is more favorable for people with families or who visit the doctor a lot
- You need to pay hundreds of dollars each month for coverage

While I was there, we were offered a wide array of options from different insurance companies. Shell paid something like 75% of the premium, so I was very satisfied.

It is a fairly standard plan. There are a couple of choices for different enrollment choices, and it offers a little bit of everything you might want

I believe that the health insurance was quite good, but am sufficiently young and healthy enough that I had little need for it. A few sports related X-rays and encouraged screenings were all I needed. My PPO provided for free dental exams/cleanings.

I never had problems with the health benefits. I used it every couple months for regular check ups
