Question For People Who Not Insured Through Their Job.



Recommended Posts

I'd like to know how much is insurance monthly for a person with one or two people? I tried googling it, and have came up with so many different answers and usually the companies want you to call and speak with them. They ask you questions first, instead of the straight answer. I want to know because I'm still waiting to see the doctor towards the end of the month, and I am not sure how long the wait for surgery might be with my current insurance, but I have an idea it will be six months, could be a year. I currently have a Health Plus. The last figure I saw online was something like 400 a month for one person, or something like that.

You're not going to find specific health insurance rates online without calling into a company and giving your medical history/selecting your options first. I recommend finding one of the bigger carriers in your state, usually an Anthem or Humana because they have the biggest network of doctors. Most individual plans DO NOT COVER Sleeve surgeries. The plans that do cover it are usualy on large group plans offered through an employer.

Hope that helps

If you can afford the cost of the health insurance you could save that and do a self pay. You wouldn't have to delay your surgery nearly as long either.

Do you have 401 savings? You can often take a medical loan from your savings.

No 401K. I think I'll just wait and find out. I called insurance, gave them CPT code and was told it was covered. We shall see. Thanks everyone.
