And The Dalek has still not returned to us.
Is the shame of your defeat that cruel, Dave? That you will not even return to your friends?

He abandoned us to stand for local council elections in a safe seat - and lost in dramatic style when his party nationally went on to make massive gains.
It's possible that he has been quietly disposed of by his local Conservative Party as a punishment for his failure - they don't take kindly to failures like that...

TBH, his seat was 'winnable' rather than 'safe'. IIRC, this was his second time, first up was to make up the numbers on the ballot paper, as he did okay he got bumped up the list to a winnable seat [that he STILL failed to get]. Now he waits for a local in a safe seat to stand down / defect to UKIP / get caught in bed with Ricky Gervais and he gets the nod to stand next time.
As I say, this is from memory, as I daren't interrupt his current rant against stupid people to ask; maybe he'll be done sometime in late 2023.

Thought for sure I posted this question five minutes ago; but I guess not.
Anyway, what is the best way to choose an insurance carrier ?
How does one compare competing companies ?
What are the questions to ask ?
The context of these questions is a newly forming startup company. The goal is a good simple basic plan that provides...
- Peace of mind for disastrous medical emergencies
- Care for severe illnesses if they develop
- Simple procedures for regular maintenance visits
As for Dental / Drug / Vision, I am also clueless, and would like to learn the questions to ask.
When the insurance carriers sell their coverages to small companies, what are they NOT telling them ?

My previous job was with a medical insurance company.
I would say that on the whole they are not trying to con you. Be sure to ask all the questions first before signing.
The one area that can catch some people out is pre-existing conditions, so conditions like diabetes, asthma etc would need to be declared to the company just to be sure that a claim is not invalidated when a claim needs to be made.
Most companies will not cover dentistry and many will not cover elective MRI etc scans(quite simply because elective MRI etc scans are not statistically justifiable from a clinical point of view).
My experience of working for the company was that they are concerned with the health of their clients. With the huge over prescribing of polypharmacy in the US they can sometimes have better experience with regards to what medical interventions are successful than your average doctor may have(they have access to a huge volume of statistical data).
If there is any advice I would suggest it is be sure to pick a company where you can have access to free clinical advice - the company I worked for employed clinicians(nurses and doctors) who were able to help clients determine whether or not they needed a medical intervention.
These clinical services may also have weight loss or 'stop smoking' programs associated with them which can be of benefit to employees.

By law they have to tell you everything and you have to answer their questions honestly, ask about the 'small print' as there shouldn't be any.
They will occasionally refuse a payment when your physician is proverbially 'taking the piss' by over-prescribing - and some physicians do this.
The medical insurance industry is highly competitive and it is not in their best interest to rip you off, they want to keep you healthy so that you can continue to pay your modest premiums.
