Welcome to Individual Health Plans
Looking for individual health insurance? You're not alone.
More and more people are realizing they should think about their health before something happens to put it in danger. Whether you are healthy, haven’t seen a doctor in years, or have a medical condition or concerns, no one is immune from the possibility of a catastrophic accident or the diagnosis of a serious medical illness. Routine doctor visits and lab tests may be manageable costs, but hospital stays, operations, and illness treatments generate fees that rapidly soar out of control. By the end of 2007, health care costs are expected to reach 2.25 trillion dollars. How much room is there in your budget for an emergency hospital stay or operation? Here are the estimated costs of some routine check-ups and surgeries:
- Automatic Defibrillator: $33,364
- Cataract: $7,038
- Chest Pain: $4,023
- Cardiac Pacemaker: $14,710
- Follow-Up Surgery: $7,082
- Abdominal Pain: $2,277
- Pre-Operation Exam: $920
- Lower Back Pain: $1,920
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: $6,214
Unfortunately, these fees only cover the actual surgery or exam; there are additional costs for medication, check-up visits, hospital stays, anesthesia and more. In today’s world, even minor surgeries and preventive care easily accrue overwhelming bills. One may ask the question, “But, can I really afford health insurance?” The reality of today’s world is no one can afford not to purchase health insurance. In the event of an accident, injury or illness, medical treatment is not a luxury, it is a necessity.
