I am not an attorney, however from personal experience being in a very bad crash. Once my case was settled, I was informed I had to pay back $40K in medical costs after the attorney got his 33% off the top. He negotiated, but I still paid back $30K.

On a workman's comp, my ex had to pay out $10K in medicals, plus the 20% from the top to the attorney.

I found all this to be underhanded in Wisconsin because neither of us were informed about this liability from our attorneys until directly after we signed the settlement.

That means the rates will be the same. As for whether the company is "bound" by the quote, the company can only quote pre-filed premiums so long as you are providing accurate information in your quote application, the premium will be the same for the same plan from the same company.


Why is health insurance important when considering a job offer?

Health insurance is an important topic to discuss when considering a job offer because a person does not want to be without health insurance if something were to happen medically. There is a new law that states an individual must have health insurance or face tax penalties when filing income tax. Insurance costs will be less if purchased as a group, like employees in a factory. If the company is too small to offer its own health insurance program, the individual will have to spend more to gain insurance.
