Pennsylvania Health Insurance

Highmark Advance Blue individual health insurance is no longer available in Western Pennsylvania. But affordable alternatives (my Connect Blue EPO 6500B and my Connect Blue EPO 1750s) were previously offered. The Advance Blue plan was a comprehensive policy that offered extensive coverage at an affordable rate for both individuals and families. Covered benefits included coverage that was often found in expensive group plans. However, premiums were very low on this particular plan. We liked this policy because you did not have to meet the deductible to use the office visit and prescription benefits. The old Highmark DirectBlue and PPOBlue policies placed a deductible on those two coverages. Compared to many other available plans in the Keystone State, the Advance Blue policy was able to potentially reduce your total out-of-pocket cash outlay, since most claims were covered with small payments. Whether you had children or no dependents, it was a good choice. So...since it is no longer available, what is the most affordable similar option? Meet "my Connect Blue EPO 250G,"  which is a Community Blue Flex (ONX) plan. Of course, there are no longer any medical questions to answer, since all Exchange policies are guaranteed-approval with no risk of denial because of pre-existing conditions. Possible legislative changes may provide additional low-cost option by 2019, depending if...
