It's a low cost plan that is available if your income qualifies. The problem is that the income qualification level is low so even those families who make a modest income cannot qualify and are stuck paying the outrageous insurance premiums. Once you qualify, you have to submit income verification each quarter. <BR/><BR/>My sister and BIL did qualify for it several years ago, but after the first year my BIL was given a raise and that "extra" $50/month he was bringing home put them above the income level. They were cancelled and had to go on BIL's employee plan which costs them $611.00/month for their family. So much for that "extra" $50. He would have been better off taking a pay cut LOL! <BR/><BR/>Take care, <BR/>JessicaTwo + Twohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11866634123743670181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8836584.post-42103420453226502852008-10-06T22:20:00.000-04:002008-10-06T22:20:00.000-04:00You know, I just don't see how anyone would ensure...You know, I just don't see how anyone would ensure a dead baby mama for 5K. Cause, you know, we might get pregnant again, and need some of them expensive tests and treatments. Ha, I say.<BR/><BR/>And after I had a baby who spent a week in NICU, I am pretty sure my whole family would be in trouble if we had to get insurance on the open market.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09745262857388007041noreply@blogger.com
