Q: Are there any companies that would provide group insurance to a group of 1? I have my own home based business with myself as the only employee. I have a federal and state tax ID and a business license so it is legitimate?
A: Group health insurance is usually available on a guaranteed issue basis to employers of 2 or more, with at least one employee covered on the state unemployment insurance plan. In some cases this coverage is also available to one person businesses but none of these plans are available online so you must use a local resource (Chamber of Commerce or similar) or a pre-paid service like OnlineAdviser. See the details online on the health insurance page at www.freedombenefits.org The plan you originally asked about at www.BasicHealthInsurance.net is a group health insurance available on a non-medical basis but this is intended as supplemental rather than primary insurance. You should keep looking offline for the available alternatives, but be aware in advance that they are much more expensive.
