   Not one policy but many via multiple small businesses.  Granted we shopped   
   carefully to the point of getting to know the agents and the underwriters.   
      
   To be specific  the increases in the previous 10 years were on the order of   
   10%/ year, in the  past 3 were 4%.  This year we received various rebates   
   under the 80% rule.   
      
   Some I know personally who are basically self employed or did not have   
   employer based insurance have likewise done better in the past two years or   
   so.
