How to Get Cheaper, Better Coverage Without a Traditional Employer Plan

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

You no longer need a traditional employer plan to get good, affordable health insurance. The New Health Insurance Solution can help you cut your health insurance costs in half if: * You're self-employed, an independent contractor, or your employer doesn't provide health insurance (you can probably get coverage on your own for about $94/month--a fraction of what an employer would have to pay for the same coverage) * You are employed and pay extra to cover your spouse or children under your employer-sponsored plan--you may save 50% by taking them off your employer plan * You own a small business and are getting killed by double-digit premium increases--you can now give employees tax-free money to buy their own plans and get your company out of the health insurance business The book also explains in detail the best solutions for you if: * You can't find affordable health insurance because you or a child have an expensive preexisting medical problem (your state has a program to provide you with guaranteed coverage ) * You're currently putting money into an IRA or a 401(k)--because you don't realize that an HSA is always a better option * You're unsure how you or your parents will be able to afford health insurance during retirement, or how to maximize benefits from Medicare--including the new Part D prescription drug plan The New Health Insurance Solution is the definitive guide to the new ways every American can now get affordable health care--without an employer. PAUL ZANE PILZER is a world-renowned economist, a former advisor in two White House administrations, an entrepreneur/employer, an award-winning adjunct professor at NYU, and a New York Times bestselling author.
