Agreed, and coverage criteria are plan-specific rather than insurer-specific. Two people with the same insurer and different employers have different rules, which is why "my insurer covers it" is not transferable information.

I read this differently from Dr.PathRoch, on substance rather than tone. The affordability discussion here usually stops at individual tactics.
