If you have recently lost a job, signing up for COBRA

If you have recently lost a job, signing up for COBRA insurance is the quickest fix to keeping you covered, however it is not the cheapest. COBRA allows you to keep the same insurance coverage that you had with your employer however you will be paying the full costs which can get quite expensive.

Consider opening a savings account to use as an expense account that you can use to make payments on your co-pays and deductibles that apply to your health insurance. It can be used to pay for things that are not covered under many policies like prescriptions, eye glasses and contact lenses.

Even if you think you have found the perfect health insurance company, it does not hurt to look around for others. By shopping around, you may find that there is an even better health insurance company for you and your specific needs. You may even save money by looking around.
