what health insurance with consultancy

Original Post

Do you guys know any good health insurance option while working with consultancy ( I am using OPT and I will be using TPS EAD)? I actually need to go to see a doctor as well. So, I am trying to figure out a good option. Please feel free to give any suggestion or idea.

If you're on w2 they need to provide you an option to get employee groups healthcare.

@Ramboo and maxpyane I can't wait till November because I am supposed have a health insurance while working and I don't think I should be working till November without one. Can a person who is working in IT eligible to apply government healthcare options? My consultancy does have some options but they are not good. Therefore, I am trying to find other options. I don't know which one to pick because I will be using it. :(

Assuming you make at least 60k, you don't qualify for any subsidies. If you don't like company insurance, you can just buy it with any company that works on your state. Don't ha r to wait until November.

Just go to your state health connector site, if not just go buy direct from insurance provider in your state.

I am searching on google. It shows a lot of options, i am contacting them, it's kinda confusing. I don't want to be stuck with some bad one. I have had a bad experience in the past. As I mentioned earlier, I will be using it because I have seen doctors from county hospitals when I was eligible to receive their services from them but it was disappointing. They were not well-equipped and not much interested in the treatment (long story short). They did a few tests and said everything looks normal but I am suffering every day for years and now it's getting worse. they said we don't know what's going on. I want to take care of it as soon as I can. That's why I am trying search every where because it's so confusing without any good reference. Therefore, I have to pick a good one and I don't want any hassle while claiming.

best option as up now is get employer heath insurance.And switch to state run insurance in next few months.Somepeople work weekend at Amazon stuff just to get cheap health insurance.One of my friend makes about $80k and he do part time at Amazon gets health insurance for $40/hr.
