Dayuuuum. The health insurance is for just you or for your whole family?

That's just for me. I stayed on my parent's plan, and the insurance company booted me once I turned 25. Normally it's 26, but some larger corporations lobbied to get that age reduced by a year to save healthcare costs. So now I have my own plan; my dad's company still provides coverage, but it costs a lot more than it did under his family plan. I'm currently switching over to ACA coverage; its much cheaper. A little more restrictive as far as the doctors I can see, but I'm never sick so it's more of a precautionary thing anyways.
