Health Insurance

[the big welshman]

`I am just letting you know that the N-W-R-A--Is offering health insurance plans at a discount price ie group rate to those who are members of the association a group rate is passed over to the member.-For example I pay a rate of $650.00 for two people with a HMO group rate via the Small buisness Ass here in MASS.The N-W-R-A rate starts from approx $275.00 to $ 400.00 depending on deductable & ie office visits range from $40.00 TO $60.00 ,this is a PPO Plan .Of course it goes by your age???. And you can claim 100% of Health Insurannce against your TAXES it is worth approx 20% to 025% off your taxes --- Is this a good deal???

All I can say is, shop around.

I, presently, do not have health insurance via my businesses since I am covered under my wife's health plan with her employer (PPO/Cigna)

Without being too specific ..... $175.00 Per/Month gets me:

$15.00 copay for general office visits
15/20/30 Prescriptions
$50.00 Emergency Room (waived if admitted).

I do believe (and may be wrong) that most group health plan pricing is based primarily on the number of commited participants.

I do know that many Chambers of Commerce (and other bus. associations) usually offer their members an opportunity to involve themselves in a group health plan.

As well, if you are just seeking coverage for yourself/your own family, as opposed to a policy that your employees may participate in, the pricing will vary.

With ref to the above I gave you this information regarding for those people who do not have a partner having health insurance via employment from a regular job .This information was given for people who are self Employed with no health insurance.You can pay $1000.00 plus for a family plan per month if you are Self Employed .And it is very hard to get a decent health plan out there ,and there are not a lot of organizations that will offer health Insurance.-- So if you become a member of the N-W-R-A they offer Health Insurance to there members PP0 PLAN (some states not covered) eg 2 people plan -approx $400.00 per month & a family plan approx $700.00 per month. (depending on your age) The savings are passed over to the you the member --THANK YOU--The Big Welshman GO THE REVS for the MLS Sunday

The NWRA plan is not a major medical plan. I would use it only as a compliment to an existing plan or if you can't get coverage by a major medical plan.
