I am a 22-year-old poor college student, do I qualify for any free health insurance?
I am in college so naturally I am broke. I have no health insurance because I cannot afford it and my parents cannot afford it for me either. I can't get on my parents insurance because they don't have any plus I would be too old anyway. I have looked into Medicaid but it only covers children, the elderly, and pregnant women but I am none of these. Is there any kind of help out there for young, single people?
--------------------
Lots of people your age end up in this situation, but you have options. First, if you parents had health insurance and you were a full time student, there is an excellent chance you would qualify to be added as a dependent on their plan. You should also check to see what kind of health program your university offers. Some universities have health plans you can sign up for when you apply for classes. Another idea is to call a licensed agent to discuss what options you might have in the insurance. eHealthInsurance.com, where I work, allows you to look at a broad range of health plans in your area. All you have to do is enter your zip code, birthday and gender and you will instantly see several plans and their rates and benefits. We also have licensed agents available through our toll free number: 1-800-977-8860. If you still can't find a plan that fits your budget, visit coverageforall.org. Their site summarizes public assistance programs across the US as well as each program's eligibility requirements. Hope that helped! Amir M, licensed agent.

What do you think about pet health insurance?
My older bully (only 2 years old) has really bad allergies and we have recently had to pay about 1000 dollars for allergy tests and allergy shots. We are worried about the new puppy (3 months old) because of his probs. I am wondering whether it is cost effective to get insurance for her. I looked up the AKC insurance and the complete package was about 55 dollars per month.
--------------------
It may be difficult to get pet insurance that will cover your older bully's allergies. This would likely be considered a "pre-existing condition" that would probably be excluded. It would be worth it to check before buying a policy. It should be okay to get a policy that will cover the puppy as he has not had the allergies yet, and thus wouldn't be excluded. It would be worthwhile to check with the insurance company you choose to see if there would be any problems with the coverage. It's really worth taking some time and shopping around before you buy a policy. Many companies offer policies that have different types of coverage. The last thing you want is to discover you aren't covered for something you think you are. As you narrow it down to a couple of companies, I would invest the time in calling each and asking more specific questions and maybe even ask how coverage would work for a specific condition.

Why do they keep calling it "health care reform" when it's really just "health insurance reform"?
It has nothing to do with changing the way health care is performed. Just the way we get health insurance.

The ideologies of Marxism/ socialism/ communism have infected our American culture. Because Americans who lived in eras where these ugly ideologies wreaked havoc on the world were critical of them, proponents began to call themselves something more appealing- "progressives". In socialism, a central government controls the production of goods services for equal distribution to all members. Communists typically employ this by more militant means. Progressives more cunningly achieve this by entitlement programs, law, regulation burdensome taxation. Despite their hopeful sounding name, progressives utilize the constant mantra of "change" are generally intolerable of anything traditional that provides social structure, including concrete morals, religious teachings original meanings of the U.S. Constitution, hence the moral digression. They have a tendency to confuse earned privileges with entitlements then accuse the opposition of withholding so-called "rights". They popularized "political correctness" redefined "tolerance" "diversity". They frown upon "old ways of thinking" (President Obama's own words). Interestingly, the majority of today's Democratic politicians are members of socialist "progressive" caucuses. One can examine our culture today see evidence of such Marxist ills: The current health care bill makes federal funding for abortion accessible to lower class women who, with their children, would be considered a drain on the system amounts to eugenics (selective human breeding); Aversion to all things religious, i.e. controversies over 10 Commandment monuments, traditional marriage, etc.; Government control of businesses, like with bailouts, carbon taxes health care business takeovers; Totalitarian rule similar to how the current Administration Majority members are behaving, i.e. the unprofessional tongue lashing the President gave Republicans Supreme Court Justices in the State of the Union Address. Other things are more subtle like indoctrination through educational systems, media other propaganda. These have all been practiced by despotic regimes of the past that America considered her enemies detested because of their depraved philosophies resultant brutalities. Consider the failing socialistic entitlement program of Social Security. Their recent publication stated the "Board of Trustees now estimates that based on current law, in 2041, the Trust Funds will be depleted. Because people are living longer and the birth rate is low, the ratio of workers to beneficiaries is falling." It went on to "reassure" me that it could still "pay about $780 for every $1,000 in benefits scheduled." Nice ROI. We've tried socialism its not financially sustainable, proving once again the government can do a worse job managing investing your money than you can. Do you really want an amoral, money-hungry government in your health care business? Our government is way out of its functional jurisdiction of providing order national security. Moral issues notwithstanding, giving control of various things to the government equals giving up personal freedom. Many fought to obtain our freedoms for us. We must fight to maintain our freedom or we will have to fight harder to get it back. Progressives, keep your change. I'll keep my freedom. Encourage your representatives today to vote down costly Obamacare any big government legislation.

Do most health insurance companies cover invisible braces?
I went to the dentist today and they said to see an orthodontists because i have a slight overbite. I have straight teeth though so i dont want to get braces that people can see. So does health insurance cover invisible braces? Also, are there any other ways to get rid of a small overbite?

Why don't you call your insurance carrier and see. They are the only ones who really know what your plan benefits are; because every insurance company is different, benefits vary.

Can someone please explain how health insurance works to me?
Ok, I realize this question shows how ignorant I am about the real world, so I'm embarrassed but I have to be honest: I have no idea how health insurance works other than that it covers certain medical expenses! I'm just getting out of college so I am not used to having to deal with this. I know you pay a monthly fee, but what is a deductible? How does this work? For example, say a company charges $50/month with a $2,500 deductible fee...when would I have to pay the $2,500, if ever? I need the most affordable health insurance possible... I am really struggling with money at the moment. I am a U.S. citizen with a very very good health record. 22 yrs old and non-smoker. I plan to travel to Canada (Montréal) and live there for about 6 months after I graduate. If I get health insurance in the U.S., will this cover me in Canada as well? Thank you for any info, it will really help me out a lot!

Getting Individual Health Insurance For Self Employed?
I had my health insurance lapse 4 years ago and have been without since. Right after my lapse I had to out of pocket a hernia surgery and I don't want to go thru that again. MY QUESTION is: If I went out and picked up an individual plan tomorrow, how long does it take for them to cover me if I am injured and need medical treatment? Be it a visit to a doctors office, a prescription, an x-ray, or a surgery. I'm not a drinker or smoker, nor do I have any current conditions.

Based on your question I would suggest that you need a trusted adviser to help you through the process of purchasing health insurance so that you understand what you are purchasing. Some may suggest going on line to get a quote but you probably already know that there is much more to health insurance than price. Some might even suggest a discount plan which is not insurance at all. Ultimately, you are the one who determines the affordability of your health insurance plan by deciding how much you will participate in sharing the cost of your health care with your insurance company. If you choose a plan that covers everything i.e. doctors office visits, prescription drugs, preventative health benefits, maternity coverage as well as low deductibles, low copays and optional vision and dental benefits your monthly premiums will be significant. On the other hand if you are young, healthy and use the health care system rarely you could consider a plan that covers only the major health catastrophe which will result in a relatively low monthly premium. You then can use the monthly premium savings to pay for the occasional doctor visit and still come out ahead. Check with the agent that writes your home or auto insurance he/she can provide you a health insurance proposal that takes into account your budget and health status. They can answer questions as to what is and is not covered by the policy, explain deductibles and copays and show you the hospitals and doctors that participate in the network. Use the Internet to educate yourself but use an agent to purchase the coverage.
