priorities, and other factors. Two people of the same age and gender may have vastly

be much easier. Please, don't hesitate to contact us to discuss your options.

or HSA plan will work best for you, we have a simple online health plan finder to help you decide. You can also

Individual
Individual Health Insurance is a great way to get affordable coverage. Many people
don't realize how expensive coverage for their family is when obtained through their
work's group health plan. Also, compared to COBRA, individual coverage is much more
affordable. We can cut costs by 50% or more for similar or better coverage! Check

Family
Many Families choose to insure together on one health plan for financial simplicity
and convenience. With most carriers, you can keep your dependant on coverage until
age 23 if they are a full time student. However, it may be worthwhile to address
each family member’s coverage individually. After all, your husband won't need maternity
coverage any time soon.

group health plans still extend maternity coverage, many individual and family plans
now exclude it. Plans which cover maternity tend to be more expensive. If you plan

decision and before you are pregnant.

Short-Term
Short-term coverage is also referred to as temporary health insurance. If you find
yourself between jobs or waiting on a previously submitted health insurance application
and cannot do without coverage, a short-term plan will provide you with the protection
you need. Short-term plans are designed to fill coverage gaps of up to six months
at a time. Because they are temporary, the underwriting and approval process takes
less time.
