Affordable individual Pennsylvania health insurance plans are made available by most major health companies. Aetna, United HealthCare, HealthAmerica, Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, Capital Blue Cross, Independence Blue Cross and Geisinger are some of the larger carriers that provide high quality coverage at an affordable rate. Although Assurant and Celtic aren’t as big, there are pocket of the state where they are viable options. For example, Celtic offers very attractive temporary medical rates.
Individual health insurance plans often cost much less than an employer-sponsored plan. Some of the reasons include: more selective underwriting, lack of maternity coverage (without a rider) and less medical risk with a single family. Also, Pennsylvania private health care generally is less expensive than medical care in many neighboring states such as New Jersey and New York. Individual plans often cost less than $100 per month, and many family plans are available for monthly rates between $250 and $400.
Pennsylvania health insurance plans also offer a wide variety of coverage options. Unlike some group options, you can easily obtain catastrophic, comprehensive or HSA coverages. In some counties, a few companies will have substantially lower premiums, so it’s important to use an experienced broker to help you find the best plan. For example, in parts of the central part of the state (Dauphin, Lebanon, Lancaster & Cumberland Counties), Geisinger may have much more competitive rates than other carriers. Yet a few counties in either direction, another company may be a better choice.
