> My out of pocket cost was a few thousand to hit the max. Because I cared about healthcare coverage instead of a slightly higher salary.

Is having to pay a few thousand for emergency care considered low in the US?



Yes. Costs can vary dramatically based on what we're calling emergency care, however. Some people go to an emergency room for flu-like symptoms, others are brought in with major trauma from a car crash. Understandably those can result in very different bills and very different care-for-$ perceptions.
