Saw this bit and I am gonna say -- health benefits from work are a nice-to-have, but a bare bones safety net plan is sufficiently affordable to purchase on your own. IMO basic dental coverage that you can buy on your own, however, offers a fairly poor value for your money. So make sure you brush your teeth and floss on a daily basis bcos dental work is seriously $$$$$.
Also bear in mind that a lot of married couple get their extended health benefits off their spouse's work plan. A lot of couples I know have 1 partner working a steady, secure job with health coverage, while the other works a higher paying job with few other benefits.
