health insurance

[DangerouslyMoody]

for those of you that are self employed, where do you get your insurance from??

NASE. I think the PPA also has something that offers better coverage than going solo.

Blue Cross Blue Shield.

don't have any... been meaning to get some.. haven't been insured for over 5 years so I avoid sicknesses at all cause lmao

Because of preexisting conditions, I am uninsurable.
Probably won't have ME to kick around much longer.....
A bad cold and I'm a gonner (according to the AMA)

I'm Blue Cross/Blue Shield as well.. found an agent in town that specializes in small business that beat the pants off of any other offer I found.

That's me too...I was insured through my ex-wife's job but now that she left so did the insurance...If I can live long enough to get on Medicare, I'll probably be OK (fingers crossed)...Ben

Im just trying to find some for my dad, he was on my mom's insurance but she passed away on Christmas and I can't get him on mine at work so was just looking for something other than COBRA

COBRA was useless to me after my divorce...I checked into it and my cost for continued coverage was a touch under $700.00 a month and I still had a $2500.00 deductible per year...As I recall it was only good for two years after which I was on my own...So far since then, I've been lucky and not needed any emergency care...I'll take my chances and hope I live long enough to qualify for Medicare...Ben

I'm with Assurant Health. I am really healthy so I have a no frills policy with a large deductible ($5K) that will save me from a catastrophic event. They covered most of my bills from my Florida accident last year.
