Consumer Guides for Getting & Keeping Health Insurance

We "bump" into some terrific free guides and this is one. As we all know, health insurance is a HUGE issue these days in the U.S. If you don't have a horror story relating to this, you most likely have a family member, friend or colleague with one. This Consumer Guide for Getting and Keeping Health Insurance is published by the Georgetown University Health Policy Institute and has a guide for each state and the District of Columbia. The guides summarize your rights and protection regarding health insurance.

The guides are organized similarly, including a summary of legal protections, specific information for those in group plans and individual plans, information for small businesses and the self- employed, financial assistance options (federal and state), useful phone numbers and other contact information, and a glossary of health insurance-related terms.
