Affordable Health Insurance For Children

Lillie Said:

Affordable health insurance for children of students?

We Answered:

Most colleges offer health insurance plans that you can purchase as long as you're a student.
It will also allow him to have dependents so if he wanted to buy health insurance through the school he could put his children on it as well.
The coverage is usually good and it is a lot cheaper then buying individual insurance.
It might be something he wants to check into.

Michelle Said:

self employed and need affordable health insurance for self and children?

We Answered:

Assurance Health is a good, afforable independant health insurance. My family has that plan, with $15 co-payments at doctors office visits. I don't think that dental or vision is included, but they may offer that as an extra package with the health insurance.

Affordable Health Insurance for a single mom with one child?

We Answered:

Affordable health insurance certainly does exist - especially if our wife and child are both relatively healthy.

You really have 3 options after the divorce:

1. Let them continue on your group plan via a COBRA group continuation plan (this is up to them and not really your choice but as long as your employer has 20 or more employees then they will be offered this option).

2. Purchase an individual plan (usually much cheaper than a COBRA plan but can be tricky to get approved for if there are health problems).

3. Get coverage with a state Medicaid like health plan.

Whatever you decide to do be sure that you shop around and compare quotes from multiple companies to make sure that do not pay more than you need to. Here is some more information on finding affordable health insurance coverage:

Frank Said:

What is the most affordable health insurance for children for a family who's income is $60k?

We Answered:

OK, depending on how many kids you have, you might make too much money for your state Children's Health Insurance Program. Family coverage costs $800 to $1200 a month. It just does.

You might want to sit down with an agent, and talk about a high deductible plan with HSA, if you qualify.

Now, there's this NON INSURANCE plan you might qualify for - www.medi-share.org . It's NOT INSURANCE, and you MUST be living a Christian based lifestyle to be covered. Which means, married, not living together; non smokers, and not obese. You can check out their website for more details.

Shirley Said:

Does anyone know an affordable health insurance company?

We Answered:

It depends on what you consider affordable. I have clients who think their $1000 per month policy is affordable because they have health conditions and others who complain that they have to pay $100.

Most major health insurance companies are like automobile manufacturers. They both offer a variety of product, from the basic low end model all the way up to the model that's fully loaded with all the options. With health insurance you get what you pay for so if you look for the lowest premium you'll get the basic plan, which may or may not have the coverage you want.

Stay away from the companies that advertise "group" plans for the self employed. This is just a marketing gimmick and their plans are hospital certificates, not major medical.

If you have low income you may qualify for Medicaid. Search out your states' Medicaid website for more information. Otherwise, you should visit a local agent that works with all the major companies. The agent can find the best plan for your situation and budget and can explain what you get and, more importantly, what you don't get with any plan. There is no extra charge using an agent.
