FAQ: Health Insurance

Here are a few tips and pointers to finding health insurance. If you have suggestions, websites, etc., send me an email. Please pass this URL to friends and other lists.

Be sure to start with ehealthinsurance.com. This website offers side-by-side comparisons of plans and prices. Enter your zip code and get regionally specific information. One family found a plan that was a third of the cost of their current plan.
