Reducing Health Insurance Costs

Stuck paying high health insurance premiums?  There is something you can do about it.

What is the thing we value the most?

When it comes to purchasing health insurance we think that our most valuable asset is our bank account. Wrong!

Our most valuable asset is health of body and mind. Period.  Good health has always been more important than premium health coverage.  Why?  Because you are able to control your health insurance rates. 

You are the authority on your body and there are many things you can do to improve it and lower your insurance rates simultaneously. 

So, what have you done lately to improve your health?  Every time you invest in a healthy life style choice you take control of your spending. The money you save stays with you and not with the insurance company!

I've always prioritized a healthy life-style, but several years ago I made a solemn resolution to really work on my health for that year. What did I do?

• I lowered my weight, 
• became regular in my exercise routine,
• started taking several anti-oxidants and other vitamins and minerals,
• went through a thorough medical and dental check-up,
• began to learn a bit about naturopathic medicine and organically grown foods,
• applied for an improved health insurance policy and took out long term insurance,
• got international travel insurance when I would go overseas.

You can reduce your health insurance rates with companies. Here are two things you can do:

1. Go to your current insurance provider with your new medical record.  If you have become more healthy, and it shows, then re-apply.
2. Make a whole new application with your new medical records to another insurance company.

The answer to the question "What is more important than good health insurance?" is "Good health!"
