Affordable health insurance in this day and age can be extremely challenging for some, especially if your employer does not offer a plan and you are in the poor population. If you live in Indiana though there is a great opportunity for you. It's called the Healthy Indiana Plan and it's available to lower income Indiana residents.
The state approved this plan back in January of 2008 by the Federal government through a waiver to reallocate Medicaid funds. To qualify for the plan, individuals must have been uninsured for more than 6 months, be ineligible for Medicare or Medicaid and be between the ages of 19-64. You must also be a US Citizen.
The plan has excellent coverage and will meet most applicants' needs. Some benefits include prescription coverage, physician services, hospital visits, home health care, hospice, family planning, disease management, mental health services and substance abuse help. Currently, dental, vision, and maternity care is not offered. Based on your income, there may be a monthly premium, but it ends up being only about 2-5% of one's income. See if the Healthy Indiana Plan is right for you.
