Can I purchase BCBS group health insurance in the state of TEXAS? (The state of Texas part is key). My husband is self employed, the owner of a small consulting business. We will be moving to Texas very soon. Where we live currently, we have BCBS group health insurance. We would like to have BCBS Group health insurance in Texas, too, but I am not finding it. We do not want small business owner health insurance because we get a better rate with group insurance. Please do not reply with spam. If you are an agent, that is fine, but please keep your answer relevant to my specifications. Thank you for your help!
How much cheaper is health insurance in Texas? Does anyone have data, did Tort reform lower health insurance costs? I mean isn't texas having a surplus or perhaps a surge of doctors since passing such law? Let's prove to the liberals this works by using the facts for a change. If it's not cheaper than other states, it should have at least went down, right? Who cares what liberals think? Conservatives do care about facts, so can you at least answer the question?

My health insuranc, home insurance, life insurance and auto Insurance. I get to Houston Texas and find out that most agents either deal with home and auto or life and health insurance. I now have a freat home and auto insurance agent but he does not deal with health insurance. His reason.

In Texas - How does getting health insurance coverage for a newborn work? My husband and I have health insurance (CIGNA), but due to the timing of our pregnancy the pregnancy itself has not been covered.

Texas Group Health Insurance, any experts? We have a prospect who works for a company which would be considered a small group. All of the employees in this group have decided to not go with the companies health care policy. Instead, most of the employees have gone with personal, individual health plans. This has become a problem for our prospect who could really use the benefits that are offered by group health care. Are there any laws against all these employees having individual health plans? They're not on their spouses employee plans either, their on just individual plans. If there are any rules or state laws can you please point me in the right direction?
Health Insurance in Texas? I'm looking into finding out more on TEXAS law on health insurance. I was just told that my husband wouldn't be able to have his step-daughter on his insurance any longer. 1. She is receiving Child Support....but the biological father doesn't hold on to his job longer then 6 months and he's not paying right now...and he's just not reliable...period! 2. My husband has been raising her since she was 2 months old, she is now 16. Is this possible to Health Insurance to do this? I know we have options like...1. adoption-which will give full credit to my husband. We haven't done this cause the sperm donor doesn't want him to give up...considering he doesn't fight to see her or anything. 2. Medicaid; or 3. have the sperm donor have insurance on her....like I said...he isn't RELIABLE!!

Is it possible to get a health insurance policy for just a child in Texas in 2011? I was just told that I need to have a policy for both myself and my child, even though I already have coverage through work. Clarification: My new job will cover me 100% but will charge over $500 a month for one child. When I was looking for a policy for my child, the insurance agent told me that I would have to purchase a policy for both of us, not just my child. Is the insurance agent mistaken?

How to get health insurance for senior US resident living in Houston, Texas? She is 68 years old, has lived in the US as a resident for one year. She is not eligible for medicare or medicaid because she is not in the low income target population and for medicare she has to be living in the US for at least five years. In Texas, like many other states, they don't sell private insurance to seniors. Does anyone know of any kind of insurance that we can buy for her, public or private?

*Texas Health Insurance Coverage Question? I am 26 years old and my health insurance stopped on my birthday (1/31). I recently just injured my knee and haven't been able to walk on it in 2 weeks. I play soccer and my assumption is that I tore my acl or mcl. Because I am not covered right now, is it possible to join an insurance co. and get coverage!? Technically its not "pre existing" because Ive done nothing about it. I would need an MRI to even see if its torn but they wont give me one without insurance. If I were covered with a new insurance company, does it start immediately? Otherwise, the insurance that expired on my birthday is now offering a "continuation" if I pay that last 4 months and all that jazz. The only problem with that is the insurance I had then, has SHOT up since I've turned 26 and would be 1126 to cover the past months and $290 a month. Is that my best option though, or can I look for something more affordable/realistic that could/would cover me!? Ive played soccer for 23 years and Ive never been injured from it so this is ALL new to me and I need answers because I have to decide by the 31st of this month if I do want to do the continuation.

Does anyone know of a temporary health insurance in Texas that covers contraceptives? I need temporary health insurance because my mom's insurance kicked me off (I'm not a full-time student) and I'm not eligible to apply for benefits at work until the fall. I need a good temporary health insurance plan that covers contraceptives, namely Depo Provera. I've found many good temporary health insurance plans, but they all seem to have an exclusion or limitation that says that they do not cover contraceptives or contraceptive devices. Help? I've been on Depo Provera for well over a year now. I know the side effects, and haven't really experienced any. I'm not sure how your sister got pregnant while on it, unless she didn't get the shot on time. I've used the pill, and I'm not interested in it. If that were the case, I would just go to a clinic. I was previously covered by Aetna, and that covered the shot completely. All I had to pay was a $10 copay for the doctor visit. If I don't get insurance by Friday, I'm going to have to pay $250 to get the shot and doctor visit.

Company Health Insurance Obligations for Terminated Employees in Texas? I have a friend at my work who is doing a job he hates only because his wife has cancer. There is a former employee who was fired but comes in to pay for his health insurance every so often. Our accountant told me that if it were up to us he would be removed from the insurance, but we have to follow Texas State Law. He also said that it wasn't Cobra. Does anyone know what this particular law is and the language of it or where I can find it? I want to tell my friend about it so that he is no longer being leveraged by the health insurance. Thanks!
