Insurance in US
Insurance in US
Hello,
I have a question about the healthcare insurance in US.
I have heard that it is tied to your employment and the company provides for it.
So here are a couple of questions:
-
Is there no way for an individual to get their own personal insurance and not be dependent on the company?
-
What about freelancers, business owners and retirees? Do they forfeit their insurances?

- You can purchase health insurance separately from employment however it can be prohibitively expensive or limited in coverage.
- See 1. Additionally retirees of a certain age have access to socialized coverage in the form of Medicare.

What would be the difference in price? Just a ball park figure if you have it.
-
What about freelancers and people that don't work traditional jobs?
