Buying healthcare insurance outside of work My dad's work dropped their healthcare insurance and gave everyone a raise. Where can my dad purchase healthcare insurance? Thanks.

I would advise against Scott and White, not super expensive but when i had them there were all sorts of places that didnt take them and all sorts of procedures that they didnt cover.
For example, to get tested for strep throat (the little swab process) not covered, all out of pocket if you have scott and white....
Alot of other bullshit like that i had to deal with with them

Hello
Thats really great that in your insurance they are providing you with dental as well as vision. But most of the time in health insurance they cover all the things. Now a days we can find low income medical insurance, this will help the people who are not in a position to buy such high medical insurance.

I did the non-group policy thing with BCBS and it was horrible. I think we were paying somewhere around $1000/month (no vision or dental) and it was horrible. Things that you are used to being covered no longer were (like labs). Be sure to read everything in there as to what is covered and whats not.

But as far has paying out of pocket for insurance, think rape.
