In my search for individual/business health care coverage, I’ve found some articles and information to share with you. It appears that health insurance plans are able to provide coverage within specific states. In each say, I found, there is a list of plans that are available, and some that aren’t. One plan I looked at was not available in my state. (Find your state’s department of insurance (or insurance commission) by googling “state name” and “department of insurance.” I found some good information on Health Insurance Info (from Georgetown University) by going to my say and downloading a report.
I found an interesting article that substantiates my belief that I’m not alone in my concern that I don’t have access to retiree health insurance from my organization. The article, from the Gilroy Dispatch, stated:
Only 35 percent of massive employers offer retiree health benefits, down from 66 percent 20 years ago, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation.
If you’re in the same situation, I share your concern. I’m still on the search. More later….
