How to Buy Health Insurance - Being Uninsured
Senior Vice President of eHealthInsurance Bob Hurley gives an overview of purchasing health insurance.
Transcripts
Bob Hurley: I am Bob Hurley and I am with eHealth Insurance and I have been with eHealth now for about eight years and we actually came together as a group of people and decided to use the internet to try to reach people who did not have health insurance. So we created a website where individuals, families and small businesses can come to the internet and they can shop for health insurance in their area, they can compare health insurance plans from some of the leading health insurance companies in their area and they can actually buy health insurance online using their credit card and electronic signature. In fact, we have created that process.
So today, we are going to be talking about a number of topics in health insurance, we are going to be talking about young invincibles, those peoples that are 18-34 years old that often times, go without coverage. We are going to be talking about the early retirees and this is an important segment of people who have decided to leave their career and change jobs, do something they love to do and yet, they have never bought a health insurance before and they don't know how to do it. I am going to give them some tips on how to do that and then we are going to be talking about some other topics, some definitions, some tips for all of us to buy a health insurance and reasons why we should. So we are going to be doing that over the course of the next few videos so I hope you will stay with me.
