Individual or family health insurance is also commonly known as personal health insurance. Family health insurance is where you, your spouse and your children are all included in the same plan. Someone who is self-employed or his/her employer does not provide insurance benefits to the employees, this type of policy can be purchased for oneself and the family.

The qualifications and regulations of this policy vary from one insurance company to another, the difference is that the health plans available to individuals and families are not guaranteed issued. This means that if you have pre-existing medical condition the private health insurance company may turn you down for coverage, or they may approve you for medical insurance coverage but exclude benefits for treatments of your pre-existing condition.

 Group health insurance may provide better benefits but some people can’t get this because they are self-employed or work in a small company, or they can’t enjoy COBRA benefits or for some other reasons. So people under these categories have to resort to individual health insurance; that is they buy their own insurance.

Many insurance companies offer this product to individuals but if a person is over 50 years old, he might face some problems, the reasons are 

If his health is not in good condition, the insurance companies will not take the risk to insure him. But the thing is, how many people can maintain a good health up to this age  The applicant might have to undergo a medical exam to prove that he is insurable  The applicant might get fewer benefits

It is not an easy thing to raise a family, you have to give your children good education so that they know what is good and what is bad, and at the meantime you must support them financially, but if you die prematurely, your asset may not be sufficient to raise them until they are self-support. Perhaps insurance is the most ideal scheme to solve this problem, but with a single plan the coverage might not be enough, so visit our site to find out more.
