What is individual health insurance?
Individual health insurance, also known as personal or private health insurance, is health care coverage you purchase for
yourself and/or family when your employer does not provide insurance benefits. This is also an alternative solution if you are looking for
better coverage then what your employer currently provides. You may also consider purchasing a low cost individual health insurance plan
if you are self-employed, a student, or unemployed.
If you are a graduate or recently unemployed you may want to look into short-term health insurance as a
way to obtain temporary coverage while seeking a new job or waiting for your new benefits to
become effective.
Comparing Coverage Plans
With the wide variety of plans and types of coverage available today, it is always best to shop around and
compare polices to find what is the best fit for you. A good place to start when shopping for insurance is
to decided how much you want to pay. Deciding this before you begin will give you a good idea of what is available
at that range and whether or not you have to aim lower or higher for the coverage you need.

- How much deductible there is before insurance coverage begins.
- How much co-pay will there be for office vistis or filling perscriptions.
- Will your plan pay for preventative health care items such as routine checkups, flu shots, etc.
- Will your plan cover other services such as emergencry room or urgent care vistis, routine surgery or hospital stays.
