Tips/secrets to get the best rates and extra services.
 
Positives
Get Wellpath Quote
Most popular plan designs in NC.  
Almost identical to Blue Cross Blue
Shield Blue Advantage plans, BUT
usually
much less expensive.  In
addition all copay plans include vision
whereas only BCBSNC's most
expensive plans include vision.
Get Humana Quote
Two things that are big advantages for
Humana:  (1) They have no limit on
brand name prescription coverage
while BCBSNC & Wellpath both have
$2000 limit each year and (2) They
have a very large nationwide network.  
this is very good for people who travel
a lot.
Get Celtic Quote
Celitc is now a part of the MedCost
doctor/hospital network which is huge
in North Carolina.  We have yet to have
a client say that their doctor is not in
the MedCost network.
Get AMS Quote
AMS's parent company is
UnitedHealthcare and offers a
nationwide network.  Golden Rule is
another company owned by
UnitedHealthcare and their plans and  
rates are similar to AMS.
Get Assurant Quote
Assurant has the most plan options
and doctor networks to choose from
including the MedCost network.  
Assurant also goes by the name Time
insurance and John Alden

Bottom Line: In our
opinion, Wellpath's  health
plans are the closest to
what you are used to
having through an
employer.  Plus they are
usually the most cost
effective if you want full
comprehensive coverage.  
We can help you find less
expensive coverage, but
you usually have to give up
some coverage such as
Wellness Visits (i.e.
physicals, pap-smears),
Doctor & Prescription
Copays, Lab Work and
X-Ray coverage, ER visits,
or many other benefits.
