I think you already know that purchasing health insurance is an important project. You need a trusted adviser to help you through the process so that you understand what you are purchasing. Some suggest going on line to get a quote but there is so much more to the decision than price.
You need to determine how much you will participate in sharing the cost of your health care. This will determine the cost of your health insurance. If you choose a plan that covers everything i.e. doctors office visits, prescription drugs, preventative health benefits, maternity coverage, low deductibles and low copays your monthly premiums will be significant.
On the other hand if you are young and healthy and rarely use the health care system you can choose a plan that covers the major health catastrophe your premiums will be relatively low.
Check with the agent that writes your home, auto or business insurance he/she can provide you valuable advice that takes into account your budget and health situation. If they don't handle health insurance they could refer you to a trusted colleague.
If you want to use the Internet use it to educate yourself but use an agent to purchase the coverage. |

I've been self employed for the last 12 years, in those twelve years, I would've needed it once, I broke my leg, $600, they take payments, $50 a month, one year, I'm all taken care of. How much is an insurance payment? |

You're looking at a private policy.
Just start with the guy who writes your business insurance - if he can't do a policy, ask him for a referral to someone who can. |

Since you are self-employed, you might consider enrolling in a “qualified” High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP). This is health insurance with high deductible amounts, so it costs less than traditional health insurance. Under federal law, the minimum deductible in a HDHP plan is $1,100 for an individual. The maximum is $5,500 for an individual.
The main advantage of an HDHP is that you can shelter up to $2,850 for an per year from state and federal taxes in a Health Savings Account (HSA). Depending on your tax bracket and where you live, that could save you as much as $1,499 in taxes per year, assuming a combined tax rate of 52.6%—9.3% in state income tax (California), 28% in federal income tax, and 15.3% in self-employment Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) tax. The contributions you make to an HSA are yours to keep, rolling over each year. The funds are not taxed, provided you use them to pay medical expenses or withdraw them after age 65. The funds earn interest on a tax-deferred basis. Think of it as an IRA that you can use to pay out-of-pocket medical expenses.
To find a qualified HDHP plan, contact a health insurance broker. A broker works with several health insurance companies and can find the best deal for you. To find a broker in your area, log on to a website like http://www.healthinsurancewiz.com and fill out a form requesting a quote. Your info will be sent to a broker in your area who will contact you. There is no charge for the service and no obligation to buy. Good luck! |
