I checked into insurance packages not to long ago. $325 a month seems about average but that's only the base price for a non smoker in reasonably good health.
But there is a catch. This only covers 80% of what medical expenses you have, so you have to pay the extra 20%. In addition this only covers after you reach your deductible of $2500 a year. So in short you pay $2500 up front then $325 a month to get them to cover 80% of your *approved* medical expenses.
$3900 a year for the basic premiums plus $2500 deductible is a whopping $6400 a year just to get them to pay 80%.
That just doesn't seem worth it to me.
For the last 5 years combined I paid $1950 in medical combined. Had I had insurance I would have paid $32,390.
