Benefits March 21, 2008

Really only of interest to US readers - those in Europe probably have no idea of the context here.
My 16 month old boy needed tympanostomy tubes (ear tubes or ear grommets) to drain off fluid from a recurring ear infection. A five minute procedure - but it does involve day surgery and a general anesthetic.
My previous health care benefits were excellent - friends in Utah kept telling us we had incredible insurance - with good coverage, choice and a reasonable deductible and co-pay. Even so we estimated that we would end up being around $750 out of pocket for the ear tubes.
Microsoft Health care is fully funded. No deduction from my pay; no co-pay; no deductible. Incredible.
Before I joined Microsoft everyone I knew who had joined raved about the benefits. Now I know it’s true.
Take a look at this: http://www.viewmyworld.com/ - especially the first video on Microsoft Perks.
