Individual and Family
Florida Health Insurance
Family and individual health insurance in Florida are best for those who do not have the option to enroll in an employer sponsored Florida group health insurance plan OR for those who have employer sponsored plans but find that the cost of adding family members is too high.
Your options for health insurance in Florida consist of two basic types of Managed Care: HMO insurance plans and PPO insurance plans. Most Florida individual health insurance plans will fall into one of these two categories. Indemnity insurance plans are also available but they are simply too expensive. If you are interested let us know and we will include those health insurance quotes as well. There are several health insurance companies (in-state and out-of-state) offering major medical family health insurance in Florida. For a complete list visit The Florida Department of Financial Services and search for "individual policies (HIPAA)",or contact us and we will email it to you.
As you are reviewing the different types of Florida health insurance plans you may start to think they look the same. Believe me when I tell you...they are not the same. In order to bring the premiums down, some of the Florida health insurance companies either remove coverage or offer benefits "a-la-carte". If you are not sure or confused, get a second opinion, call us and we'll help you.
