Want an Honest Quote on Health Insurance Ask for a Pre-Screen

When shopping for Florida Health Insurance it is easy to find several quotes from various carriers within minutes.  However a question you should ask yourself is are the quotes accurate?

According to Evan Tunis of Florida  Healthcare Insurance, “In most cases quotes online are only quoting individuals  with optimal height/weight and who have no hospitilizations or medication.   If you have any of these factors the quote will not be accurate.

Tunis advises for all clients to ask for a pre-screen from a broker who represents all the major carriers.
“A Pre-Screen” is a likely outcome for a client based upon an underwriter looking at a potential customer.  The pre-screen will determine if a client will be considered standard, denied, rated up or have certain things excluded.

It is important before any policy is submitted to have a pre-screen done so you know exactly how much to budget for a Florida medical plan.

Quick Ways to Save on Florida Health Insurance

  • Have Previous Insurance: Many carriers charge quite a bit less if you have previous florida health insurance.  For example if you are considering a United Health One policy you will save 7% if you have previous health insurance.  This can include a short term medical plan or even a discount plan.
  • Switch from Brand Name to Generic Medication:  If you are applying for new medical insurance and take brand name medication you will pay signifigantly more then if you take generic medication.  Several carriers will not rate you up if you take generic medication however all will raise your rates if you take expensive brand name medications.
  • Go with a Higher Deductible:  Rates drop dramatically when you move from a $1,000 deductible to a $2,500 or even $5,000 deductible.  In addition with the savings you can apply for an accident insurance or critical illness policy that will pay all of your deductible.
