$220 a month, I know crazy inexpensive. It's not through Obamacare, it is via a insurance broker here in Tennessee and United Health.

- duped 5y agoThat seems high for a catastrophic plan unless you have kids
- nodesocket 5y agoNope, single just me. My previous Obamacare plan which was worse in everyway was $450 a month.
- duped 5y agoNow that's insane. My last gold HMO off Kaiser was less than $250 and current PPO is $300 in California. When I bought insurance for myself it was $320 for a silver HMO off the exchanges. But my understanding is that it would be much cheaper today than back then.
- tannedNerd 5y agoI don’t know where you saw that but I bought a bronze plan off the exchange in California for 480 a month last year as a 33/yo

- camkego 5y agoCan you share more info so others can explore this?
- SkyPuncher 5y agoBuying insurance as a contractor was eye opening to how little my employers had actually been contributing the to cost. Comparable plans were within the ballpark of what I use to pay with employer sponsored health insurance.
- runako 5y agoSlight nitpick, but all United Healthcare plans are regulated by the ACA (Obamacare). This means that they are significantly more comprehensive than the junk plans that comprised the individual market when I started freelancing. (The difference is essentially: they are insurance plans that act like a non-specialist imagines something called "health insurance" would work.)
