Doesn't everyone? If you are ready to save hundreds or even thousands of dollars on your health insurance please follow the steps below. Don't worry I know how busy you are.. it will only take approximately ten minutes.

1. Do you have the correct plan deductible? Actuaries and product design executives with the various insurance carriers take a great deal of time and money to make sure they are competitively pricing their health insurance programs. They do not work with a huge profit margin, so they take advantage where possible. Do the math, you know they do. Is it better for me to have the $1,000 deductible program, over the $2500 deductible? Well take all of the deductible options; check the progression or change in percentage per $100 increment and compare. See if they are over pricing or under pricing certain deductibles. If you are not quite the mathematician, feel free to contact your broker or financial planner to do the math for you.

   An easy calculation to help in the process would be to configure the criteria that makes up your health program, such as price, deductible level, and maximum out of pocket expense and think of it as an annual cost. Many people will over pay in premiums every month in order to have a lower potential out of pocket or to have the little bells and whistles over the course of the year and it will end up costing them more than jus taking the higher deductible.

2. Do you understand the tax incentives regarding your health insurance? Take your calculation from the previous step and add to it potential tax savings over the course of the next year. Health savings accounts make for a very attractive consideration when you take into account that an HSA's annual contributions roll over from year to year and are much better then Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) all contributions (up to IRS limits) are tax deductible, and the money grows tax free and is able to be used tax free for all qualified medical expenses. Do you make a lot of money? If so the only plan you should purchase is a HSA compatible plan.

All Florida insurance rates are strictly regulated by the states Insurance Commissioner. You can use the traditional storefront "insurance guy", or the Internet to shop for your health insurance. I'd suggest using the latter, as most Internet based insurance agencies are very innovative. You might even be able to get quotes, compare plans side by side, and apply online. Just be sure to ask many questions before signing on the dotted line. Many individuals in the United States are very self-sufficient and could probably do their research in finding the plan that is right for them. I'd suggest you to do your research, and then contact the insurance professional before making a final decision.
