I’m curious to know what health insurance is the best. I know there are a lot to choose from, and they all have different prices and benefits, so what do you recommend?

I’ll be going to college in a few years, and I’m fully aware of the healthcare crisis. Although money is an issue, my health is more important.

Assuming that money is not an issue, what health insurance company provides the most comprehensive and inclusive health insurance policies available?

Is there an insurance company out there that will let me do the following?
- Choose my own doctor/hospitol
- Pay relatively low co-pays
- Cover the cost of any prescriptions
- Pay for health, medical, eye, and dental on one plan
- Pay for the majority of any psychotherapist appointments
- Continue coverage despite sudden circumstances (major illness, accident, etc.)
- Cover the cost/majority of a specialist upon doctor reccommendation

Does such a health insurance plan exist, besides the plan available from the state?

It is a proven fact that the overwhelming majority of uninsured ADULTS are uninsured BY CHOICE. They CHOOSE not to get health insurance.

For example, they CHOOSE to quit school at 15 and end up working in a low-paying, no-chance-for-advancement job. A boy or a girl might CHOOSE to have sex at 16 and get pregnant/impregnate someone. Others choose to have a TV in every room, 3 cars, smoke 2 packs a day, and drink a 6-pack at night, then complain they don’t have any money to buy health insurance.

What CHOICE have you made NOT to have health insurance?
You all proved my point.

“trishopesisters” is an RN and her shack-up boyfriend has a decent job as well. The average salary for an RN in NYS is $64,000 (look it up). One would guess their combined income is $100K plus. They can afford $800 a month. They choose not to.

“The Answer Man” chose to change jobs and not pick up COBRA. He says it is difficult to come up with the $250 a month for basic coverage. That is $8 a day. One could get a second job. Before you ask, yes, I have worked 3 different jobs at a time, sometimes putting in 90 hours a week. So I know of what I speak.

“Rain” admits she could find a part time job, but apparently is making a choice not to do it.

“Olesya C” is a 31 y/o single mom. BTW, why didn’t you get married? If you did, then you are “divorced”, not “single”. I looked up quotes for a 31 y/o with a 10 y/o child. Health Net would run between $140 – $200 per month. Blue Cross was between $163 – $550 per month.

The Massachusetts government implemented a Mandatory Health Care Insurance Program in order to boost Health care Insurance providers revenue. Those who choose not to abide by the new law will be subject to penalty.

I am a Canadian working in Massachusetts. Will I be punished if I stick with my Canadian Health care Plan?
I am Massachusetts resident too. I pay Federal and states tax.

We have no insurance and cannot afford our medications. My grandparents cannot afford to even get them. I know their are foreign pharmacies to get medications from, if anyone knows of legitimate sites or pharmacies we would be so grateful if you could help us. It is outrageous that people have to choose between eating or taking required medications. I know this involves many scams, so we would only want to use ones proven to be safe and legitimate. Never having done this, I have no idea where to begin, so all info and help is so appreciated by our family. One RX alone can cost 200$ or more, we can’t afford it and I know there are many others with same problem, so maybe we can help each other and find legitimate sources, so we do not lose more money on foreign scams. I know their are dishonest people who will take your money and never give you the meds, but I am hoping there are atleast some honest, caring compassionate people who care enough to help us?
