I’m a successful part time entrepreneur in California, but I maintain my day job because of the group health insurance they offer. I’d like to cut the apron string and go out completely on my own, but the insurance situation holds these plans hostage.

I don’t want to buy private health insurance, I would like to structure my one man business so that I can easily purchase group health insurance for myself and family. I’d like to purchase group insurance as opposed to private insurance so that I don’t have to deal with preexisting conditions and riders, etc. Since I’m still a sole proprietor, I have plenty of leeway in regards to business structure, and I’m willing to change whatever is necessary to get the best deal possible.

How can I get health insurance for myself and family and pay for it as business expense without employees?

I’m a college student and work a part-time on-campus job. My paychecks are usually less than or around 500 each month. I haven’t had social security or medicare taken out of my paychecks for 8 months, but just this last month, they deducted social security and medicare. Why are they starting now? Is it due to a certain amount I have earned? If not, what?

So they have to pay higher rates under individual plans, even though they make less, cause they’re only part time. Is it any wonder why so many Americans do not have health insurance?

How come part-time employees don’t qualify for employer’s group health insurance plans? Please help me.

Members of the church would have to pay their portion, but can the church offer group health insurance to members of the congregation?

We’re in Virginia, and insurance isn’t currently offered to the two part-time staff.
What if we hired participating members as part-time employees of the church, and got a health coverage plan for all "employees" of the church, full and part-time?

I am a part-time worker and I am looking into buying individual health insurance. Who are some reputable companies to look at. What can I expect to pay for basic coverage?
