As a woman, I have been worried about not having health insurance, have you been worried too? I know how to use a computer, so I was able to check out the online health insurance quotes on the Internet. I filled out a few forms but it was difficult to pick the right one for me, there were just too many choices! So why was I researching online health insurance quotes? I was recently laid off, my boss said “he hated to let me go” but he had to lay some people off and since I was the last hired…well you know how it goes. I found out I could not afford the Cobra Plan for continuing my group health insurance, no way for $585.00 per month! I was shocked to know that is how much my company had been paying for my individual health insurance. Guess a person does not really appreciate some things until they are gone…like boyfriends, a good job and oh, a flattering hair style!
My biggest concern about shopping online for health insurance was how does a woman know if the health insurance quote you get is a good deal? I mean, we know if a handbag is a good deal or a business suit for work or a gift we buy off eBay, but health insurance? Also, I feel uncomfortable with insurance salespeople; I don’t like being pressured to decide to buy something right now. So if you are like me, you can understand how we don’t like to be pressured into a sale or “sold’. Why? Have you ever been in a mall and had a sales lady warmly greet you and smiling so much at you, she looks like her face hurts? Then she follows you around the store and won’t leave you alone to shop? I have, I hate it, bet you do too and we can’t wait to get away from her, right? So I get the same feeling about insurance, especially health insurance sales people.
So here I am unemployed, with only unemployment pay and in need of really cheap health insurance. I got a really bad scare recently. A long time and close friend of mine did not have health insurance through the small business she worked for and got stuck with an enormous medical bill! I won’t tell you what she had, just that she is recovering and will be returning to work soon. But her retirement fund is going to be drained dry when she pays that huge medical bill. Her retirement account is will be almost empty! That is so terrible, she has worked so hard and now this!
I had figured to chance not having health insurance for a while, just until I get a new job…But after what happened to my good friend, I can’t chance it. I am much older than her and don’t want to fall victim to a health catastrophe. Now, I am scared and just don’t feel safe without some kind of health insurance. So again, I went out to the internet looking for a decent website that could give me an inexpensive health insurance plan. I was afraid to wait and wanted a short term health cbdwardcom plan to tide me over and protect me until I get a good job with a group health insurance plan. I warmed up my Mac computer and got online and went looking for a “good, inexpensive, low monthly premium health insurance plan.” One that I could afford without losing my skirt!
