Jim, I would be interested but don't you need 10 in 1 state?

Group insuarance can be a little cheaper but the big advantage is that there is no limit on how much an insurance company can raise premiums on individuals. Like if you get cancer they can raise your rates to $1,000,000 a month effectively cancelling you. Most states don't allow them to do that with group plans.

Yep, with NY involved especially. They have some funny laws regarding health insurance.

I've got an individual policy through BCBS. Pretty freaking expensive.

ARS used to offer some kind of health insurance. I never looked into it but I assume it was some kind of group thingy they arranged.

Group health insurance for webmasters. That would be really cool.
