I'm in GA and am not offered group insurance coverage, so am looking for a group that can be joined for the benefit of obtaining group insurance coverage. Anything out there for the masses?

Some companies have special association plans. Check with the Chamber of Commerce, and any trade associations you can. Also, since Blue Cross is not an insurance company (they are a non-profit organization - most people do not know this) they can do things other companies cannot do because of insurance regulations. Check with them.

If I work for a company in Massachusetts and I live in Oregon, can they provide health insurance?
I may be taking a work from home job from a company in Massachusetts. Unfortunately they say they are unable to provide health benefits to an employee that lives in Oregon. Is this true?
--------------------
That sounds really strange. You should be able to use their insurance even if you are stuck using out of network providers in Oregon. It's even stranger as Mass has a state law requiring everyone to have medical insurance. Ask them for a pay increase to help off set you buying your own insurance. In any case the saving you have by living in Oregon vs Mass should cover your insurance any way if all else fails. Plus you get to stay in Oregon, Ma kind of sucks. I'm in Bend, Or. my self

Does everyone here know that the Health Insurance Reform bill HR3200 does not include universal health care?
I've seen multiple Q/A that suggest universal healthcare is being proposed by the administration and it's not. "Free" health care is not being proposed by the administration. Also, the majority of Republicans support HR3200 (minus the public option) according to Rudy Giuliani on today's "Meet the Press".
--------------------
Yes, I know. A public option (which is not in there at the moment) is in itself a pansy, crappy, limp option for what it really should be. Universal Health Care or to hell with all opponents in 2010!

I just started a work at home business as a health benefits consultant. It's pretty cool, and I find it very exciting to be able to offer people an alternative to high health insurance costs. Check out the website www.myhomebusinesspays.com/40545943 and if you want more info feel free to contact me. It's not a scam at all...you just have to make the time to find the people that need the product. You actually do get paid daily (no joke). It's awesome, and a Godsend for a stay at home mom such as myself.

Was this all about forcing us to buy health insurance?
That's the only part of the plan that is still in effect, which makes me think it was the plan all along. I've always said the insurance companies will never allow a public option, the liberals have been duped again. When will you learn? This means 40 million new FORCED customers for the insurance companies. If you think this is going to make them lower your premiums, I've got a bridge in Alaska to sell you.
--------------------
You've always said that the insurance companies wouldn't allow a public option? And how are they to stop it? Oh yeah- by getting their talking heads on Fox to rile of the fundamentalist support in a paranoid frenzy. Liberals have been duped? Wow. If the public option is gone, all that has been achieved is that the privately held insurance companies who have been screwing you and me both left and right will have one less major competitor. The middle class foots the bill again because of its own short-sightedness.

i really need health insurance for my family but the ones that aren't astronomical sound too good to be true?
like national benefits consultants and a few others that called me saying it was around 150/mo for 80% coverage for all major medical expenses, a one-time fee of 120 to start up, and the price doesn't raise for adding my wife and child. are these red flags or is this legit? is there a website i can check insurance ratings?

Some health insurance companies, or organizations such as AARP, will compare policies for you. The most difficult obstacle is that no one can predict the future, either with respect to: 1. one's health needs, 2. policy coverage, or, 3. policy premiums. One approach is to compare policies and premiums based upon one's current needs. Note: Federal Employees Health Benefits are most probably the best, and least expensive, but it is absolutely essential to comply with all rules and regulations, because the G will go to absolutely unbelievable extremes to deny coverage. A career federal employee once wrote to the editor of newsletter saying that, regardless of the law, the federal government does what the then-president wants.

Do cons like to sit in a train next to a person with TB because the illegal alien has no health insurance?
Many illegal immigrants don't have health insurane and can not afford medical care. But their health problems don't affect only themselves because theyr don't live in isolation. If you ride in a train or a subway next to a person with an open form of tuberculosis, then you will catch the disease as well. The same goes for STDs. Isn't it better to provide them with medical care?

Are you surprised that the Republicans are siding with the health insurance companies over the citizens?
Regarding health care reform....
--------------------
A cursory look at history shows that no one should be surprised. Every time the Republicans have had control of the government they have ignored health-care reform and the out-of-control cost of health care while putting our country in ever-greater debt because of spending that has yielded no returns to the public at large. Instead, they have borrowed to pay for hundreds of billions in agricultural subsidies that primarily benefit agribusinesses and at the expense of more efficient, less-polluting small farmers. They have cut taxes for people who invested their cuts not in this country but in China, India, Indonesia, etc. They have overseen polices that ensure the exportation of our industrial base. They have promoted policies that remove oversight over the kind of speculation that resulted in the half-trillion S&L crisis under Reagan and the mega-recession that has destroyed tens of millions of American lives--and still counting. They have opposed policies that would make business more competitive, instead fomenting competition-killing corporate mergers and takeovers (this is not conservatism, folks; it is corporatism). They opted to waste hundreds of billions, to say nothing of human life, in order to invade oil-rich Iraq rather than destroy al-Qaeda and the Taliban in Afghanistan, a costly blunder that we are now having to pay for in Afghanistan. Only Iraqi Kurds (the only real good in the Iraqi invasion) and corrupt private defense contractors (including mercenaries) have benefited from the Iraq invasion. One is hard-put to think of any Republican-backed measure that has benefited the poor and middle classes of this country, but perhaps someone can--without getting into meaningless labeling and tiresome iteration of stale platitudes. All I can think of are measures and policies that have engorged the pockets of the wealthiest one percent of people in this country at the expense of everyone else.\ ***Edit: Anyone who disagrees should show me to be wrong with valid, credible facts from sources generally recognized as nonpartisan. Otherwise, your disagreement has no validity.

I work at a part-time job & I have no health insurance. How can I find coverage.?
I've already considered going to a private insurance company, but what else is there? P.S. Besides going full-time at my job.
--------------------
Is your employer a member of your local Chamber of Commerce? Sometimes they will offer plans to employees of member companies. It's worth asking your boss! You might also try contacting regular insurance companies and ask them about individual plans for "catastrophic coverage." These aren't typical plans with doctors visits covered, but they do cover you if something really bad happens -- like (sorry, knock on wood) a bad accident, coma, terminal disease. As such, the monthly premiums are much lower than traditional health insurance coverage, and while it doesn't help you day-to-day with minor illnesses, it does buy peace of mind that if something terrible were to happen, you wouldn't have to declare bankruptcy or force your parents to sell their house or whatever. Good luck.

Do health insurance companies record all calls?
My wife was told that our newborn would be covered by her insurance for the first 30 days of life. After securing insurance at the 30 day mark, we were told he was not covered. We were given bad information, is there any way to prove this?
--------------------
No, they don't record ALL calls, and even if that call was recorded, you have no legal access to that information. Your wife SHOULD have gotten a "confirmation number" from them. Because obviously to everyone in insurance here (but NOT obvious to most CUSTOMERS), there's no "automatic coverage" unless you have welfare health insurance. If you don't add the baby to wife's policy WITHIN the first 30 days, RETROACTIVE to the date of birth, there is no coverage.

How can my dad get his health insurance knowing he's not a citizen here.?
He has a lot of blood vessels that are clotting up on his leg. He was only able to walk 1.5 blocks 2 months ago and now only for half a block. Doctors are saying they will try they will try. But they are not really doing enough to help him because he has no insurance. Why do doctors wait till till that last minute to help him when it might be too late.

You might have a hard time buying an individual insurance policy. Acne can be very expensive to treat. Since state laws vary widely consult a local broker and ask for a pre-screen. This will be your best source of information Don http://mtnhealthinsurance.com

Are we Americans being turned into health insurance suckers?
P. T. Barnum one said, "There's a sucker born every minute." It seems to me that we Americans have been made to feel so imperiled if we don't have health insurance, we forget to demand high enough wages so we can afford to pay for it on our own. Corporate America has taken over the entire country and the rest of us are just a bunch of slobs begging for scraps.
