Typical situations where Family Health Insurance is perfect:

- No Group or Federal programs available.
- When both parents are close to the same age and both smokers or NON-smokers.
- Health conditions are about the same among family members, all fairly healthy.
- When the price merits the plan, and provides the best benefit for the dollar.
When NOT to use Family health insurance and to choose Temporary Health Insurance
- If you are between jobs, and believe your new position will start in less than 1 year.
When NOT to use Family health insurance and to choose Multiple plans or Split Plans
- If you or your spouse is a smoker, and the rest of the family is not. Since most carriers up-rate the entire policy due to smoking.
- When a family member has a group plan, but the rest of the family does not or it cost too much to add the rest of the family to the group plan...
- If you are on COBRA and have conditions that would be waivered or declinable with traditional carriers...
- If you are a single parent family, with multiple children you may consider CHILD ONLY options.
Special Notice Regarding Family Health Insurance:
Family health insurance is great for traditional situations, but you may find yourself saving money if you choose to do a SPLIT or Multiple plan insurance strategy. Contact a professional to help you get the most out of your Family Health insurance.
