If you have your own business you might be lacking in a vital aspect of your life, health insurance. Even if you are between jobs, unemployed, or just found out you can no longer afford health insurance there is no reason you should be stuck with a high medical bill should you get sick. I just had major dental work done about 2 months ago and since I don't have dental insurance I had to work out a payment plan with my dentist. I pay $100.00 a month and should have the bill paid off in about 18 months. I use to have one of those health discount cards but dropped it when I got regular health insurance. I didn't realize that those cards covered dental work too. My dental bill would have only amounted to about 1/3 of the amount I am paying now. My card only cost $19.99 a month and that covered the whole family. If I plan anymore dental work I'll get one of those cards again.
What I like about those types of plans is that they don't exclude people that have prior medical conditions like regular insurance companies do. If you do look into getting one of those discount medical cards there is one thing you should know - make sure your local dentist, doctor, pharmacy and hospital are listed in their plan. That was one of the major reasons I dropped our card, the closest doctor was over 50 miles away but it did cover the local hospital.
I should mention that the medical discount card that I had was a different company than the one I have links to in the paragraphs above.
