Affordable Ins?

erih · #1 10-11-2011, 06:48 PM

Does anyone know about any affordable insurance options for a college student working part time?

I've already checked into my school's ins, and state ins and don't qualify for my work's ins. And my parents are 90% sure I am no longer elligable to go back on their ins plan (it'd be ~$2-300/month anyway).

Even a small lead could be helpful! Thanks

The only thing that I can think of that *might* be less than 200 or 300 per month is a mini-med policy:

You've linked me that before, & I've done a little bit of research, but I don't know where to go/who carried these policies.

I *thought* I had looked that up before. I'll see if I can find who sells them!

Thanks, Missy! Dr Rozell-Shannon also found a study that it looks like I qualify for in NYC

I called the Office today, but the lady I spoke with needed to confirm some things, so I'm waiting to hear back from them (hopefully tomorrow before I have to leave for school).

I'm really hoping this works out & I'll be looking at plane tickets & cheap places to stay soon

I hope it works out as well! Keep us updated and let us know!

No phone call yet. If they haven't gotten back to me by tomorrow (thurs) I'll try calling again.
