I'm in good health, but my coverage costs are skyrocketing

By: Donald Yerke

Its lonely at the bottom faced with huge financial debts. These debts can be the result of the individual or group insurance coverage you have. Both plans have advantages for most people choosing right now. However one of these plans could empty your wallet with future mile high permiums.

Numerous people are thrilled to save $150.00 a year on home insurance. Watch television and your junk mail for all the insurance companies promising to sell you car insurance immediately saving you $180 to $300 or more. But the king of insurance savings is the $1,200 or more families can save on buying group health insurance. Millions of more people are running a home established business each year.They do not qualify for the normal 10 member group plan. Yet there is group coverage they can receive. If you have 1 to 9 members, you have another great choice.

Almost every city has a Chamber of Commerce office to benefit the business community and residents. Meeting member qualifications for joining often includes the option of participating in that Chamber's group health insurance plan. Group Insurance coverage when compared to similar benefit individual health plans is often at least 10% as less costly. If a group plan saved you $100 a month, that would amount to a full $1,200 after one year.00 annually.

Initially on individual major medical coverage you are very closely evaluated for your present and past health.The results could reflect in higher than anticipated costs. Any major health condition now or in the past will creep out to haunt you. For individual health insurance, you may receive a counteroffer to play 50% to 100% more for the health insurance. Additionally any claims on your health coverage for pre-existing and current health issues will usually not be eligible during the first 180 days. Paying a couple grand out of your own pocket is certainly neither a uncommon or pleasant emergency expense.

Enrolling in the Chamber Of Commerce plan is the route to go if you have current major health problems or pre-existing health conditions. The Chamber plan MUST accept you. Many group plans pick up claims on current and past conditions in 90 days or even less. All this, and even unhealthy members pay the exact same cost as every other Chamber member.

Now look at the negative side of the group coverage. If the Chamber of Commerce is a member of the community for decades, this could mean bad news for you. Established Chambers of Commerce have established, long term business people. As the average age of total members increase, automatically so do the rising health conditions needing medical assistance. Claims are constantly paid out, forcing rates to rise. To calculate the new group insurance rates, the insurance company evaluates the total claims paid and not much in premiums that group paid. Double digit rate increases give you no option but to pay the outrageous premiums. Certainly, if now you are one of the unhealthy.

Good health members, often opt for individual coverage when rates soar. This causes the insured pool to shrink further down to mainly medically prone members.. Just one sudden unexpected health problem occurs, and sudden your group insurance company has handcuffs on you.. After your health declines, individual health insurance is no longer a viable option. Getting caught in the rate trap is a horror from which you can not escape. Should you be one, whose health takes a sharp turn keep up a positive attitude. Image where you would be if the federal government was running group health insurance.
