How do I get individual health insurance quotes for North Carolina?

admin — Sun, 11 Apr 2010 20:28:37 +0000

I am currently living in New York State and am considering moving to North Carolina. How do I get individual health insurance quotes while still living in NYS? All the websites ask you to provide a North Carolina address which I do not have yet.
Thank you.

You contact a local, independent agent in NC. They’ll be able to give you a ‘ball park". HOWEVER, if you’re under 30 and healthy, it’s going to cost about $200 a month. If you have problems, you’re likely not going to be insurable, depending on their seriousness. Or it could cost you $500 a month.

Wouldn’t a better solution to health insurance issues be to have individuals more in control?

admin — Fri, 09 Apr 2010 23:42:10 +0000

If more individuals purchased insurance for themselves and shopped for the best deal, wouldn’t the insurance companies be forced to be more competitive? Does this work for auto insurance? and how are the coverages different?

Thanks.

Of COURSE it would, but then how would the government/liberals CONTROL these same individuals?

How to get individual health insurance in US as a new immigrant?

admin — Wed, 07 Apr 2010 21:21:03 +0000

I will be moving to the US next week and am shopping around for individual health insurance. I am shocked that all the companies I have tried to apply at so far require applicants to have lived in the United States for 1 or more years. How are immigrants supposed to get health insurance?

Most major US health insurance companies require a person to have lived in the US at least 6 months to 1 year.

Your best bet will be to find a worldwide international travel health insurance company and get a plan from them for a year or so until you are eligible for a regular US individual health insurance policy.

Here is some more information on international travel health insurance plans:

Where can i get individual health insurance for me and my daughter that also covers pregnancy in connecticut?

admin — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 20:24:14 +0000

I need to get health insurance for me and my 1 year old daughter. I am planning on becoming, or possibly already am pregnant but need insurance for us. Any help? This is in CT, so it is a state that does not require individual policies to cover pregnancy.

There are many web sites online that offer health insurance quotes you can compare with no obligation.

Some health insurance plans may include coverage for pregnancy. You want to check with the plan when requesting your quotes.

Ask about pre-existing conditions coverage in the health plan and how your coverage and deductibles are applied to pregnancy – What exactly is covered. This way you won’t be surprised when you need the coverage during your pregnancy.

You want to make sure you understand the coverages offered, coverage limits, deductibles, co-pays, and exclusions for any pre-existing conditions. Try this site

Is there a GOOD, HONEST, RELIABLE, AFFORDABLE Health Insurance (in TN), that individuals can acquire?

admin — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 20:12:13 +0000

I have a job that has an option for health insurance, but the insurance in terrible & expensive. My boss has agreed that if we can find a good health insurance company, that he would be willing to pay 1/2 of our premiums. There are too many health insurance companies out there & not all of them are just for individuals or small businesses. If you know of one, please tell me. I live in Tennessee (East TN). Thank you!

Well, it’s always going to be cheaper through your employer! If the "we" means you’re looking for a family plan, family plans cost $800 to $1200 a month. AND, individual family plans usually don’t cover maternity. They won’t take you if anyone in the family has a serious health condition.

If you’re shopping for individual coverage, your best bet is to go through a local agent – start with the guy that does your house/car insurance.

Can you buy two individual health insurance plans?

admin — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 18:24:10 +0000

Can you have more than one Health Insurance Plan for your self?

I have to buy my own insurance, but even the best individual insurance is crappy and I wanted to now if people ever buy two insurance plans? The insurance i have now only lets me see the doctor twice a year. If I got another insurance plan would it pick up where the other left off?

No, it doesn’t work that way. Most carriers require you to agree to cancel your existing policy when you apply for your new one, and if you have two policies one is going to be primary, and the other secondary. You will reap the benefits of the better plan, but where they overlap, only one will pay.

What you might want is be a supplemental or limited benefit plan to go along with your insurance policy. These are not insurance policies and I usually don’t recommend them. I think your money would be better spent buying a better single policy, or an HSA type of plan and banking the savings.
