While it’s nice to find a cheap insurance policy, you have to find out what it covers and what it does not cover. Chances are you will find the policy just does not meet your needs, but it is a good price. Warning: do not buy insurance just because it is cheap. If you do, you may find out later, at the most inappropriate time, that it does not cover what you thought it did. Guess who pays the bills then? Right, you do.

Additionally, it may also be the wrong policy for you. This isn’t to say that insurance agents deliberately sell people cheap policies that won’t cover their needs. However, if someone calls and says the policy they want is the least expensive one, and despite what the agent says, they insist on buying it, they are responsible for the consequences later when they find out it doesn’t cover their emergency. Ask the insurance agent what it covers and what it doesn’t cover. Be informed and on top of your coverage and health, because no one else will do it for you.

If there was ever any hope of understanding what needs to be fixed in the health care system, this election isn’t going to do it. Honestly, look at what has gone before now. We have mandatory health insurance for 2014 and a variety of other things, like health insurance exchanges, and yet the costs keep rising. You can bet the health system and the insurance industry will make sure they still line their nests with money. Where does that leave you and me? Standing out in the cold, wondering what is coming next, how much it will cost, how they will pay for it, what policies will they be able to get, who will enforce the fine for not having insurance, and whether or not any of this stuff is constitutional. Good question. Do you think it is? If you don’t think so, make sure your local politician hears about it. Your vote still carries power.

No surprises in this election campaign relating to health care. Once again it is the whipping boy. The program everyone trots out to highlight their successes – sort of – because most politicians, until they get voted in, are pretty cautious talking about health issues. It’s a major hot button with Americans, in particular the mandatory health insurance provision to be implemented in 2014. Unfortunately, health care is a political issue because there are far too many people who make money from the system, and since money rules, that is likely the way it will stay in some form or another. Even with mandated health insurance, someone will make buckets of money. It sure won’t be Joe America, struggling to put food on the table. There is something inherently wrong with that picture. Think carefully before you cast your vote.

This is a really interesting question. Do you think health care reform will still be with us in 2014? Judging by what is and is not going on in Congress these days, the answer to that is maybe. It cannot be otherwise when politics in involved in something so major that it directly affects every American’s access to health care.

Then, do not forget about the lawsuit that several states filed saying that mandating that people buy health insurance is unconstitutional. That case is still rattling about the court room. What will the decision be? Who knows, but whatever it is, it will have an impact on health care reform in many different ways.

Will we get to the point where we have to buy health care insurance or else? If we do, how will those who live under a bridge or in shanty towns pay for it? How will low income families pay for it? Ultimately, how will all of this affect the American taxpayer? Food for thought, indeed.

If you do not have two clues what your health insurance policy says, join a crowd of millions who figure they can find that out later when they need to know or when they need to use their policy. The problem with that is if they wait until the need to use the health insurance and THEN find out what they thought was covered, is not, it’s not a good day for anyone.

This cannot be emphasized enough. Read the four corners of your health insurance policy simply because if you know what is and what is not covered, you will not get any surprises later and wonder why something is NOT covered. Why wait until you get a claim denied to find out that what you thought “was” covered isn’t in your health insurance policy?

Do not make the mistake of thinking that health insurance companies really have your best interests in mind, because the truth is that they are in business for one thing, to make money. Actually, any business has the same point of view. They are in business to make a living and provide a service. The service of providing health insurance is a bit different that selling bagels, but you get the idea.

If you want health insurance, you pay a company to take the risk to cover you. They figure you should take care of yourself and not cost them money. Unfortunately, things do not always work out that way and you do get sick and they do have to pay on your claims.

Sadly, there are cases every year where insurance companies deny claims for what appears to be unreasonable requirements. Before you buy health insurance, check everything out from what is included in the coverage to what is not and from what will make them terminate your coverage to when they are going to raise the rates next. Being informed in advance means you will not get too upset if they refuse or reduce a claim.

Pricing health insurance may well give you a headache, because it seems like every site you visit is quoting different figures. In fact, you may even find the same health insurance policy on several sites and discover wildly different costs.

The reason for that is health insurance companies set their own rates or, you could look at it another way, and that is that they charge what they think the market will bear. So, shop around and you may be pleased to discover you can so get a good deal on health insurance. Just because one site has a higher price for a policy does not mean that policy is any better than a policy on a site with a lower cost. It only means the first company thinks they can charge more. Evidently, they can too, as people are obviously paying those prices. Be smart and shop around. It could save you bucks.

No one said the medical discount plans were a bad idea. They do have some good things going for them, like discounted medical services and equipment, etc. However, they are NOT health insurance. Do not make the mistake of thinking that they are, or you are in for a surprise. They tend to work well when used in partnership with traditional health insurance, but as a stand-alone thing, you’d be in hot water if you needed medical care.

If medical discount plans appeal to you, then by all means, do the research and find out precisely what you get and do not get. Then, you have the ability to make an informed decision. Never leap before you look or the consequences may not be what you expect.
