I need to find health insurance for DH. Whatever is cheap. We are not elligible for any government programs like Healthy New York or Medicaid. Any suggestions. My work wants us to pay $700 for him and that's just not feasible. I was previously paying them $380 and I thought that was too much.
Thanks!

Its sad to say but in this day and age there is no such thing as cheap individual health insurance. Even expensive individual policies can be very hard to get. But that being said, my bro is an agent, I will ask him where he suggests you look for a good policy hopefully thats cheap.

in ny state you usually need to be part of a group insurance plan, like from work, etc..
healthy ny and fhp can be gotten alone.
the other insurances will be much more expensive to get privately as far as I know.
is there any group, organization, school, through which your dh can get insurance?

You can try getting an individual oxford policy for about $400/mo. call retek insurance.

I called retek while I was doing my research. They said they only deal with groups- no individuals.

There are no cheap policies in NYS due to community rating. Sorry. Best you can do is Empire hospital-only.

(And believe me I have looked...)

After a ton of searching, it seems like we will go with Empire hospital only. Does anyone have it? Are you satisfied?
