Saving Money On Health Insurance

Buying Insurance isn’t like shopping for groceries. Health plans don’t come with one-size-fits-all price tags.

Your monthly insurance premium will depend on a variety of factors, including your health, and insurance companies will offer better rates based on such factors. The good news is that there are things you can start doing now that will lower your health insurance costs in the long term.

Lower you’re Premium with Smart Choices:

Insurance companies look at a variety of factors when they decide what to charge for a policy. This includes your medical history, your profession, your lifestyle, and sometimes even where you live. But the biggest factor--- and the one you usually have the most control over--- is your health.

Here are a few things you can do to live healthier---and as a result save money on your premiums.

• Eat Right: Cut out the junk food which is higher in calories and raises your cholesterol can cause heart disease, diabetes and even some kinds of cancer. Eat more fruits and vegetables and lean meats…eat red meat in moderation.  
• Exercise: Being physically active will improve your well-being and overall health. Many health insurance plans include discounts on fitness centers---so it’s even easier to stay active. Avoid a sedentary lifestyle…get up and get motivated to exercise.  
• Quit Tobacco Use: If you’re still smoking…QUIT. It isn’t easy but it can be done. Remember, if you are tobacco free for 12 months, most insurance policies will offer a better premium price.
