    Choose CareCo.

    Explanation:

    Given : CareCo offers a generous health insurance package to all employees. ApathyInc pays slightly higher wages than CareCo, but does not offer health insurance.

    A person who is unhealthy & expects to have high healthcare expenses : would have issues having direct health insurance from an insurer, based on high risk evaluation. Even if by chance, he / she gets, it will be at extremely high price i. e premium rates & is likely to have less coverage. So, the person rationally would prefer to protect himself / herself from this huge health expenditure risk, & would protect self & family from catastrophic health costs. He / she would do so by choosing to work for Care Co, which gives generous health insurance to all its employees, by sacrifising higher salary by Apathy giving no health insurance. He / she is logical as the wage differential is likely to be less than catastrophic health costs
