Discount Medical Programs Posted: 07-21-04 18:03pm
Greetings, all!
I was wondering -- my husband and I are
moving down south from new jersey -- we
have, sporadically, gone without health
insurance and, though we have a plan now
(it's not very good!) -- we will have no
insurance after we move -- I have been
doing some research into discount medical
programs, and wonder if there is anyone
who can recommend one that, if not good,
is at least usable....
Thanks!!!

A lot of these are just discounts, not
insurance, as you said, some are o.K.
And better than nothing, beware and read
between the lines, I know, I got sucked
into them before. You should be able to
find something on the internet, until you
get settled.
Sincerely,
sandy

Are a blueprint for bankruptcy and
financial ruin. The discounts are useless
if you lack the funds to pay. Even worse,
some of the plans have no ties whatsoever
to ppo networks.
Almost every plan you will find is
overpriced.
If you insist on having a plan, pay no
more than $20/month for outpatient &
inpatient discounts.
Just curious . . . I live in the south
so I dont understand your post. You say
you are moving here and will be without
health insurance. Many carriers to choose
from in every state. It isnt illegal to
have insurance, so why does moving south
keep you from getting insurance?
