How you should research your Health Insurance choice

The insurance company can raise the cost, but cannot cancel your coverage. Some health insurance companies may offer a conditionally renewable policy. This means that the insurance company can cancel all policies like yours, not just yours. This protects you from being singled out. But it doesn't protect you from losing coverage.

Before you buy any health insurance policy, make sure you know what it will pay for...and what it won't.

To find out about individual health insurance plans, you can call insurance companies,or speak to the agent who handles your car or house insurance.

Here are some important things to remember as you make such choices:

• Quality matters. It can be measured, and it can be improved.
• Take part in every decision about your health.
• See yourself and your doctor as a team. You need to work together to get the best care.
• Ask questions, and make sure you understand the answers. The only "bad" question is the one you wish you had asked.
• Remember that "more" is not always "better." It is always a good idea to find out why a test or treatment is needed and how it can help you.
• Find and use reliable health care information. Ask your doctor or nurse, use your library, explore the Internet.... This guide has many resources for you to try.
