Understanding Your Health Insurance Options
Health insurance is a critical to helping you control your health care costs. You pay health care companies a premium – a set amount of money each month - and you get benefits to pay for your eligible health care expenses. This can include regular doctor checkups, treatment for acute illnesses or injuries and treatment for chronic, long-term conditions.
You can purchase individual health insurance through the Health Insurance Marketplace on your own or we can help you work through your options.
We all know how expensive health care can be. That’s why it is so important to have health insurance so you’re prepared for when you or your family have medical needs. With health insurance you can
- Be prepared for unexpected illnesses or injuries.
- Access preventive care services – like checkups, which are covered at 100%.
- Receive ongoing monitoring and care for chronic conditions.
