I also am wondering how much would be taken out of my check for the health insurance for just myself. Thanks!

It's approximately 55 bucks a month, but the deductible is 2500 bucks per year and then copays so basically I don't go to the doctor.

Add the $2,500 deductible to whatever is taken out of your pay - That is what you have to pay

Just be sure to add the premium amount and the deductible, because this is the only type of insurance offered. The other possible deductible amount is $5,000 if you wanted to go that route. At $9.00 per hour, which is what I have averaged this last quarter, I am finding it hard to cover rent and insurance. Wondering to go homeless or insurance-less at this point.

Mine is $140/month just for me (I believe), but I got the plan that covers Rx and believe me, my meds out of pocket would be more than $140/month (I have lupus). Also, I know the deductible is high, but when you go to a participating provider, you do get a discount from what they would charge someone not with the insurance.

I Can't Qualify For Health Insurance With A VR Job
May 03, 2011

This is my first VR job. I cannot make enough lines to qualify for health insurance on it. This is the first time I have ever had this problem. I could easily exceed my line count with a straight typing job. The only way I could meet line count now is if I blaze through the jobs without proofreading and put out bad-quality jobs. I wouldn't even be able to get up to stretch my legs ever. I'd have to cut my lunch down to 30 minutes. And even then I'd be about 1000 to ...

Health Insurance As An IC
Oct 21, 2010

I am considering becoming self employed (after a fashion) as an IC.  I have gone onto www.healthcare.gov and gone through the steps they advise when you want to take out private insurance.  Holy cow, the insurance plans offered varied in premium cost from $600 to $4000 per month for a family of 4, but the thing that got me was two items:  Maximum out of pocket for individual: 0$.  Annual deductible for individual: 0$.  Woohoo.  This just seems too good to be true.&n ...

Could anyone tell me what they paid for health insurance in 2014 through Nuance for you and your spouse and also what you are paying in 2015?  Also, could someone tell me what they paid for the health insurance for 2014 and 2015 for just themselves? I couldn't afford to take the insurance and I'm trying to figure out if it was more than 8% of my income so I can avoid paying the tax penalty.  I don't think it was for just me, but I think with my husband added on it might h ...


HELP! Need Health Insurance
Jun 26, 2015

I've always had my own health insurance.  I didn't want to get stuck with whatever plan my employer happened to offer, and I didn't want to worry about losing my insurance if I changed jobs. But now the company I'm with is getting out of the insurance business, and I need to find new coverage.  The company I work for offers insurance, but like I said above, I don't want their plan.  And since they offer it, I'm not eligible for ACA (and I don't ...

New Health Insurance Reform

With this new healthcare reform, does this mean that outsourcing companies are going to have to provide health insurance to MTs?  Even though you may be an independent contractor, you still work for the company.  With these oursourcing companies, I sure hope they will be required to offer health insurance, even if they MTs dont or cannot meet the line requirements.  This should be a very interesting concept to know about when the healthcare reform is in place!  I always thoug ...

I just recently got MQ health insurance.  I was wondering how it works since it is just a HSA and not a PPO or HMO.  Do I bring my card with me and they swipe it and the payment comes directly from the insurance or do I pay and get a receipt and then have to submit the receipt with paperwork to United Healthcare for reimbursement?  I have never used an insurance like this, if you can can it that.  Thank you. ...


Nuance Health Insurance
Nov 09, 2012

Please correct me if I am wrong, but from what I have heard this insurance plan (BC/BS?) does not cover primary care office visits until you reach a 2500 dollar deductible, no copay anymore, paying for the whole visit??  I thought all insurance companies had us pay a copay, not the whole cost of the office visit.  What about prescriptions, do we pay the full price for them now too, or is it still about a 15 dollar copay?  I am left wondering how they got this kind of insuranc ...

Am I understanding correctly from a previous post that if we have insurance with Nuance we are inelligible to go on the exchange site to get private health care?  This policy with no co-pays makes it impossible to afford to go to a doctor's office.

I was wondering for all of you MTs who work full-time from home, what health insurance does your company provide you and your family with and how much do you pay out of pocket? I work for a company (will not mention the name) and pay $62 per pay period (for just me) which I didn't think was so bad - BUT i just found out I have a $3500 calender year deducible and will have to pay 35% of hospital fees if admitted (which I will be in 2010). So besides paying the $62 monthly, I will be paying $ ...
