Ohio Individual Health Insurance

Ohio Individual Health Insurance plans are available and quite affordable! Ohio individual rates have remained quite low compared to rates in most other states. Most plans can be paid on a month-to-month basis, so short-term or long-term coverage is possible.

Some of the most popular individual plans in Ohio are “Value” plans. These types of plans provide solid major medical coverage for catastrophic plans. However, Ohio rates are kept low by reducing the number of covered office visits and limiting coverage for non-generic prescriptions. Also, with some plans, preventative benefits are reduced or eliminated.

When shopping for an individual (or family) “Value” plan, it is important to only consider major reputable health insurance companies. Never purchase coverage from a company that markets “discount plans. Companies that sell “discount plans” are usually located outside of Ohio and charge an upfront application fee.

Some of the best individual Ohio health insurance “Value Plans are:

Anthem “Value” plan

Aetna “Preventative and Hospital” plan

United HealthCare “Copay Saver” plan

United HealthCare “HSA” Saver” plan

Humana “Monogram” plan

Naturally, before selecting a plan, it’s always advisable to review your particular situation and carefully review all of the existing options.

10 Tips To Save Money On Your Ohio Health Insurance

Ohio health insurance rates are actually quite affordable compared to other states. But whether you’re paying $60 per month or $560 per month, that’s too much. Right?

Well…here are 10 money-saving ideas that might reduce your Ohio health insurance rates. While all of these tips may not apply to you, perhaps a few will lower your premium.

· Raise your major medical deductibles. By increasing the deductible from $1,000 to $2,500, a family of four could save $2,000 per year.

· Consider an Ohio Health Savings Account (HSA). If you don’t have a lot of medical expenses, an HSA could potentially save you tens of thousands of dollars over your lifetime.

· Raise copay amounts if you are not using your office visit coverage more than three times per person per year.

· Combine all family members on one policy to possibly reduce rates. However, if the adult coverage should be different than the dependent coverage, two separate policies might reduce premiums.

· Compare rates every three years. Ohio health insurance rates generally increase each year, and your rates may be increasing faster than other companies.

· If you stopped smoking, notify the Ohio health insurance company. You may be eligible for a reduced rate.

· Are you paying for unneeded coverages? The removal of symptomatic office visit coverage could save hundreds…perhaps thousands of dollars every few years.

· Ask about “Wellness discounts.” Some Ohio health companies will reduce your premium if you regularly exercise and meet other requirements.

· Make sure you are using the “Preferred” Network if you have a PPO policy. You may be paying a higher premium because you are using the wrong Network.

· Purchase your policy through an Ohio broker, not an out-of-state agency that may recommend the wrong plan.

Perhaps the best tip is to let us research and recommend the best plan for you. We’re Ohio’s leading resource for Ohio health insurance plans and your rate is guaranteed to be the lowest allowed by the state.
