Free Health Insurance Is Rare?
The old adage, 'there's no such thing as free', really does apply to health care. Medicaid is the national system of free health care. It is run by the states, which means that there are different qualifications state by state. Some states are more generous than others. Some states have found ways to extend free health care to more people, mainly children and pregnant women. A few states let low wage earners buy in at a pro-rated cost. Many consumers find that it is more expensive NOT to have health insurance. It's worth the cost to protect your family.
What age to qualify long term care?
If you're talking about qualifying for long-term care insurance, insurance companies start selling policies to people 18 years old and above. Of course you can buy later than that age but the younger you purchase a policy, the more savings you can get in premiums. You also get health discounts based on your good health. Since a long-term care need can happen at any point in our lives, regardless of age, it's best to have coverage if you can qualify for it now.
Which type of health insurance policy may not cover all of your health insurance needs or may deny benefits if you lose your job?
Most people get health insurance through their job. Most insurance companies prefer to get one check to insure 100 people than to get 100 different checks. Since you have health insurance through your job when you lose your job, your old company no longer takes care of the paperwork. Most health insurance plans have a deductible. That means you must pay something.
What should I do with my old health insurance cards?
