Step 3 Health Insurance employer-to-community switch premium surge preparation + voluntary continuation cost-benefit analysis

Problem

Immediately after retirement, Health Insurance switches from employer-sponsored to community-rated, causing premiums to jump by $75-300+/month. Most people only discover this after retiring. A voluntary continuation program exists (maintaining pre-retirement premiums for 36 months), but the enrollment deadline is within 36 months of retirement. Whether voluntary continuation or community-rated Insurance is more advantageous depends on owned assets (Real Estate, vehicles) and dependent eligibility — too complex for individuals to determine on their own.

Solution

Users input pre-retirement salary, Real Estate assessed value, vehicle ownership, and spouse income. The system compares: (1) projected premiums after employer-to-community switch, (2) total premiums for 36-month voluntary continuation, and (3) dependent registration eligibility and conditions — then recommends the optimal path.
