What type of health insurance is best for me?

So, I'm a 25 year old individual, I'm about to graduate soon and I live in MI. I'm just learning about health insurance and I was wondering if anyone could tell me what you think would be the best type of insurance for my situation. I plan on staying here in the UP for a while bar-tending and not utilizing my degree just yet. Any suggestions? I would really appreciate it, thanks....This is all new and confusing to me.

As a consultant specializing in insurance, here's my recommendation: 1. Find a high deductible plan that has a health savings account (HSA) component. The HSA should be funded fully each year. It's tax free money, and it can be used to pay medical expenses TAX FREE. Did I mention it was TAX FREE? 2. The high deductible should be about $3,000. That should save you about $250 / month in premiums. And if you take that $250 / month, and put it into your HSA, you will have $3,000 in your bank account TAX FREE. 3. The high deductible plan should be a preferred provider organization or "PPO" plan. That allows you to see any doctor or go to any hospital in the world, if necessary. (It makes a difference if you're travelling to a different state or a foreign country.) I'd recommend a lifetime maximum of at least $2 million. 4.You can compare many health insures rates at your site here http://top-usa-health-insurance-comparator.blogspot.com/ Best Wishes
