I pay about $3300 in premiums per year for the family (employer coverage) but my copays start at $40 with prescriptions running $10-40. About 6 to 7% of my net middle class salary disappears this way. But, I am lucky--this is good and affordable coverage by US standards and my employer pays the majority of cost.
