Have you checked with any house painter organizations (if any exist)? Sometimes they can provide group health insurance. One word of caution, though. There is debate about the value of association health plans (those you might see with a professional organization). On one hand these plans are less expensive than individual coverage and people with pre-existing conditions are more likely to be accepted than if they tried to apply for insurance on their own. On the other hand, some critics say that association health plan benefits are so watered down that you are better off paying more for a private plan (if you can afford it).\n\nYou might also contact your state insurance department to see if you might be eligible for group health insurance as a “group of one.” Some states expand access to group health insurance to self-employed individuals with no employees. I’ve included links below to state insurance departments and to a listing of state health guides that should explain whether “groups of one” coverage exists in your state.\n\nIf you’d like to talk to local insurance agents and compare health plans online, try MostChoice.com. It’s a fast, no-obligation way to explore the local health insurance market; you might find that health insurance is more affordable than you think. If not, that will make you more confident in your pursuit of alternative options.\n\nYou can find MostChoice here: http://www.mostchoice.com/health-insurance.cfm\n\nHope this helps,\nBarnes@MostChoice

It all depends on the state in which you live.  Blue Cross is aways a good reliable but Golden Rule is a good company also.  The latest thing in health insurance is called medical savings accounts.  Find a local agent and talk to them

Are you offering to pay for ever ones heath care, or are you offering my tax dollars to pay for it?  If you are going to pay for everyone health care I thank you.  If you are offering socialized medicine I don't think you'd like the wait.  My bother has government health care in Australia, unless one is on their death bed they have to wait in line.\n\nIf you don't like HMO health care, You will love government run health care.  The wealthy will still get premium health care, because they will pay for their own.  The masses will get Medicaid treatment.

Very very hard, not only in Ohio but any state for that matter.  Of course it is always a matter of money, which in your case can become totally out unless you have millions.  Contact Blue Cross/Blue Shield or simiar in Ohio for guidance and more IMPORTANT contact your state Department of Health.  In most states there is a set up that provides "private" health insurance through a pool for people that have conditions not acceptable through the regular companies....of course its expensive.  In most cases they are set up by a pool of health insurance companies.  For example Texas has that set up.

Anything BLUE!! the Blues association is nation wide, and the plans are really good. You will know that with your Blue plan, you will get reliable service and claims will always get paid. Each state has its own Blue plan (like Blue Cross or Blue Shield or both combined) If you are young and healthy, go with a higher deductable PPO, they are cheaper.

it depends on what type of policy you want.  If you do a search on a site like insuranceshoppers.net, you'll find some REALLY cheap options on through some more expensive options that would be a waste of money.  But there is a reason the cheapest ones are so cheap, because they have really low limits (calendar year, outpatient, Rx, etc) or don't have any coverage at all in some areas.  The best thing to do is to choose one of the companies you have heard of and get a high deductible plan that still covers everything like Rx.  Call the agency to help you out, it doesn't cost anything.  In the end, it's all just a gamble - like going to Vegas.  If you are healthy and don't know what is going to happen in the future, you'll more than likely come out ahead by saving money in premiums with a high deductible plan or HSA qualified plan.  If you have pre-existing conditions and can't get individual (underwritten) health insurance in Colorado, you might check Cover Colorado - covercolorado.org

Well the best one is to have one before your diagnosed because alot of them don't cover pre-existing conditions for a year prior to the new policy.  You'd want one with good medical testing coverage, hospital stays, drug coverage, dr visits, alt med if possible.  Many of the Blue Cross higher up plans have that, they have some co-pays but cover the big stuff.  Independent Health which is NY based company has good coverage too.

Do you mean health insurance/care?

I had to go shopping for health insurance recently and got a lot of quotes with all kinds of options. Private pay - like what your asking. If your not over 40, healthy, don't smoke or have any special needs, then our situations are similar and I can tell you what I was impressed with. Out of 8 bids from various national company's; The two best were Mutual of Omaha and American Family. MofO was very impressive with coverage, additional free benefits and low cost riders like glasses and dental. American family was the same with an added benefit of a high yield health savings account that can be used as a tax deduction. Both had low deductables with free well care or low co pay well care, and were well under 200 a month not including riders. Good luck.

Low-cost insurance availability varies depending on your location.  In most places in the US, Blue Cross/Blue Shield is available with a variety of low-cost options.  Some states also have subsidized insurance programs.  \n\nHere's a link with good info:  http://www.familiesusa.org/resources/tools-for-advocates/other/web-sites-of-consumer-health-assistance-programs-that-help-with-general-health-insurance-problems.html

There are many companies out there who specialize in affordable health insurance. Mega Life, Midwest and United American Insurance all offer affordable policies. These policies do not offer comprehensive coverage that you would find in group policies instead they offer a specified benefit amount thereby making them more affordable. Ask the agent when the last rate increase was, and what the deductibles are to make sure you get the best plan for you.

It depends on what you mean by cheap. That is, cheap could mean low monthly payments. However, if it doesn’t provide the financial protection you need or the access to the kind of care you want, having the insurance really won’t justify the lower payments. The first step in finding affordable health insurance is finding out exactly what you want from a health plan.\n\nBasically, health plans differ in three basic ways:\n\n•monthly price/annual deductible\n•access to health care (the degree to which you can visit whom you like and undergo medical treatment a specialist thinks you need)\n•financial strength of the insurance company\n\nAlso, the price of a plan is not simply the premium you pay each month. You also have to consider the annual deductible, as well as any coinsurance amounts or copayments. Additionally, the savings you can achieve through an HMO, PPO, or other managed care plan can be erased if you have to go outside the network for expensive medical care. I’ve included links to two articles that do a good job of walking you through making the best possible choice in health insurance you can afford that still provides the coverage you need.\n\nKaiser of course has a major presence in California, and Blue Cross Blue Shield is also a popular choice among Californians (they had by far the most PPO plans in the top 10 of the CR survey). You might want to write down all your concerns and then rank them in order of importance. It’s simple, I know, but I’ve always found it a useful way to make a tough choice.\n\nYou might also want to check out Consumers Reports and US News&World Reports Rankings to get some opinions about high-quality health plans (link below). I’ve also linked to a couple of online articles that do a good job of explaining health insurance and what to look for in a new health plan. The last link in the Source section is to the California Department of Insurance page on Health Issues: it has some good information on the rate of customer complaints for insurance companies and has tools to help you find out which health plan might be right for you.\n\nTo get a lot of information quickly, try getting in touch with local insurance agents through MostChoice.com. There’s no cost or obligation, and you can also view instant free quotes on health plans available near you. All you have to do is have your questions ready and tell the agents how much you want to pay and what kind of coverage you expect to get in return.\n\nYou can find it here: http://www.mostchoice.com/health-insurance.cfm\n\nHope this helps,\nBarnes@MostChoice
