Why having Health Insurance is not an option

When trying to assess the benefits against the costs of health insurance, gauging if you and your family can afford the extra expense, it might be better to ask yourself if you can afford NOT to have medicare insurance.   

Let’s face it, none of us plan to get sick, have an accident or get injured, and while we are healthy and carefree we often put that extra expense on the long finger.   This can be a costly mistake, leading to all kinds of cumbersome financial problems. Let’s view some of the reasons you really should not do without individual health insurance: 

What are the benefits of Health Insurance?

When you are sick, treating an illness, or have an injury, the last thing you need on your mind is the worry of how much money  your treatment will cost and whether you should, or can afford treatment that will put you back on your feet again.  

Having the right Health Plan protects you from this type of worry and from high, often unexpected medical costs. The benefits of medical insurance plans for individuals are many, the most obvious is the peace of mind and knowing that when you are at a very vulnerable point in your life, your health care providers will have everything they need to start your treatment immediately and look after you in the best possible way. You don’t need to worry about a thing. 

What do health insurance plans cover?

Most health insurance plans will cover a set of fixed preventive services, including free screenings, vaccines and some check-ups.  Some other covers that you may find on your plan that may apply are listed below: 

•     Emergency services
•     Hospitalization 
•     Maternity and newborn care (before and after birth)
•     Some costs for prescription drugs 
•     When you have health insurance you will have access to a medical doctor. This is beneficial because as he/she gets to know you they will get to know your medical history and needs and can treat you more efficiently. 
•     prescriptions

The risks with not having individual health insurance plans

Without the proper health coverage  in place there is a constant worry of having even the smallest of accidents, or worse, having an illness that requires a visit to your health care provider. If you don’t have health insurance you run the risk of being exposed to very high costs that may not be affordable for you which may lead to borrowing. Often individuals find themselves in crippling debt and we have even seen cases of bankruptcy due to excessive medical bills.

•     Supplemental Insurance– often a difficult decision for many, this is additional insurance which you can buy to help cover expenses that your original health insurance does not cover or skipped – things such as deductibles, copayments and coinsurance, which are extra expenses to you, are covered by some supplemental insurance plans.  Ask our expert team for more information on what options suit you best.
