Hopeful,

We have a PPO (I think it's actually the most common insurance setup) and both Catherine and Neil give good advice. If you have a choice of policies, it's also important to make sure the one you chose has no annual or lifetime benefit cap. Those will be eliminated under the new health care reform law, but I'm not sure in which year that provision kicks in.

Take care!

Greg
