You can find a good health insurance provider that offers great health plans, but you should epect that such plans will cost you. If you're looking for a health insurance plan with low premium and low deductible, then you might find one, although such a plan may not have a wide range of coverage. Keep in mind that it's not the health insurance provider that you should take into consideration, but the health plans that they offer. You should evaluate costs and benefits of each plan from different insurance companies so you can make an informed decision. Since you're self-employed, you might want to consider health plans that can be incorporated with medical savings plans. However, plans like these have high deductibles. If you’re worried that your health insurance provider will terminate your eisting plan from a previous employer, then you can check if you qualify for COBRA insurance. This will help ensure that you get continued coverage under your eisting plan for a couple of months or until you find private health insurance. There's also short term medical coverage which you can use instead of COBRA. You can also try finding an independent agent that works with a health insurance provider in your area. You can ask the agent which health insurance plans have premiums and deductibles that suit your budget, and which plans will cover maternity. - June 18, 2009 @ 9:17 am
