<prompt> Human: We got married two weekends ago so I was looking into adding my wife still not used to saying this to my health insurance but its almost SEVEN TIMES as expensive with her included. Is this increase normal??Luckily shes still covered through her employer but I was hoping we could be on the same plan for convenience.  <response>: Your employer likely pays a large percentage of your premium, but does not cover your spouse. This is normal.If she can still be covered with her employer, leave it that way. If she were to lose hers for any reason, it counts as a qualifying life event and she could be added to your plan.
