what a passionate bunch of insurance agents!! It's been great reading thru all the comments.
I personally don't see the problem with offering a customizable plan that can save a client money should they choose not to purchase the optional benefit. You have a core plan on top of which you can layer benefits, such as office visit copay, Rx copays, accident. Offer the client all the choices and let them make up their own mind. You can always offer your recommendation.
I also don't see an issue with the daily deductible. This is the first time I have seen it, but with annual deductibles now commonly at 2,500 and 5,000 or more, plus the coinsurance, daily deductibles make sense, especially with the stop loss.
Arthoscopic surgery at an ambulatory center typically runs $10,000-$15,000. would you rather pay $500 or several thousand dollars?
