10 Tips to Save on Healthcare Insurance

Americans shopping for their own healthcare insurance can substantially cut premiums by following 10 simple steps, according to leading insurers.

Answer Financial Inc. (http://www.answerfinancial.com), cites the following cost-saving measures:

Comparison shop

You can save money by comparison shopping and exploring various options such as higher deductibles. The lower your deductible, the higher your premium. Comparison shopping also allows you to determine the best cost-benefit value. For example, many plans cap coverage for serious illness so premiums may be lower than one with a high cap. Always compare benefits, deductibles and premiums and if you have a preferred physician, make sure that he or she is a participant in your plan.

Practice preventive care

Work out a schedule of preventive health screenings with your physician that are appropriate for your age and gender. Private screening companies offer a series of tests at low prices that can show if you need more intense screenings. The lower your medical bills, the lower your premiums will be, but don't skimp on the basics.
