There is no charge to the individual for using the services of a licensed health insurance agent—the commission is entirely paid by the carrier. The carrier is prohibited from selling the policy any cheaper if an individual does not use an agent.

Finding a health insurance program that meets everyone's needs is almost impossible. Finding a health insurance plan that provides good benefits with choices is very possible. Most plans require being in business for a year or more in Florida, but some do not.  If your business is small or if there are not many people that would be on your insurance or you have healthy people to cover you might consider individual health insurance plans.  If so, please have a look at Individual Health Insurance.

Medical Discounts       Save On Lab Tests

For Non US Citizen Residents and US Citizens Citizens or Residents that do not have insurance, Medicaid, Medicare or state high risk pool coverage.

Econolabs is a medical referral program that can offer discounts on medical lab services with major national labs.  This is due to the high volume of business they bring to the labs.  You provide the prescription to them and they will quote you the price for the lab tests.  You can then decide if you want to proceed.  They also have an in house doctor that can work with you. 

Medical Discounts Direct is a medical referral service so each situation is evaluated individually.  They only work with board certified surgeons and accredited facilities, which includes hospitals and/or outpatient surgery centers.  The process for your finding out the details on Medical services is that you submit a Patient Confidential Medical History Form.  That will be emailed to you when your request is received.  You make a request from either the Request Information button or email contact@medicaldiscountsdirect.com.  The form is then submitted to doctors and medical providers that fit your needs.  Your situation is evaluated by the medical providers and a Global rate is determined.  You will receive that information.   

Neither Medical Discounts Direct nor Econolabs are a discount card, insurance plan or program, government program, Preferred Provider Network or association.  They are Medical Referral Services that have much better rates because of the volume of business they refer to the Medical Providers.  There is no cost or obligation to check out your situation to see if it works for you. 

It is important to note that medical referral programs are not insurance plans.  Medical Discounts Direct and Econolabs help people with no insurance or high deductibles obtain lower cost medical procedures and lab tests. Prices for services are negotiated and the price quoted to you. These are referral programs to medical providers and due to the volume of referrals they can get you lower rates.

This is available to anyone both US and non US citizens.  For immediate details click on the button Medical Discounts and for labs click Save On Lab Tests here or in Contents on the left.

Quick way to See if employer group health insurance or individual health insurance is the best choice for you or your business

bullet

If you need maternity coverage then the best maternity/pregnancy coverage is with a one person group plan

bullet

If you are sure you are uninsurable then you need a one person group plan.   Not everyone that contacts me that believes they are uninsurable are.  Just because one carrier has declined does not mean all will.  If you have a stent, bypass or cancer, then yes, you probably need to use a one person group plan.  If you have diabetes type 2 then we need to look into your situation some more.

bullet

If the neither of the two situations above apply to you, then individual health insurance will cost you less and give you more choices.  You can run quotes by clicking on the button "Individual Quotes" You can apply for individual health insurance at any time.

Bad idea no matter how you look at it

Some Ideas and Strategies

bullet

First determine which of your family members need guaranteed issue health insurance, they will need to be on the group policy, consider individual health insurance for the family members that qualify as the cost is less

bullet

If only the self employed person needs to be on the self employed health insurance and other family members qualify for individual health insurance, then consider individual health insurance for family members for the reasons above

bullet

If the spouse of the self employed person is uninsurable, even if the self employed person qualifies for individual health insurance, then the self employed person and spouse needs to be on the group plan

bullet

If maternity is necessary, then maternity is best covered on a group plan

bullet

Consider children having their own individual health insurance plans

Below you can find information on:

bullet

United Healthcare

bullet

Aetna

bullet

Blue Cross Blue Shield

bullet

Humana

United HealthCare is an excellent choice because it offers some of the best features of both HMOs and PPOs. No referral to a specialist are needed. You only pay a copay for services. The plan descriptions and counties that United Healthcare is available in found by going to Index and looking under United HealthCare.

Humana PPO is an excellent choice for businesses having employees in different locations, especially if some are out of state. Humana PPO has national network. This means you and/or your employees could be in network or see network doctors around the country. Humana plans have to be quoted so a Census form e-mailed or faxed to us is needed.

These are some of the options available to help meet the health insurance needs of your business. We look forward to hearing from you.
