Is there a good health insurance for college students?

Question by Sandy: Is there a good health insurance for college students?
I am a sophomore in college and have not had health or dental insurance since I was a little girl. I can’t be on my mom’s insurance cause the price will sky rocket. I have a part time job so I don’t get health benefits at work. Is there some type of health insurance that has good coverage but also doesn’t cost too much since I don’t make too much?

Answer by Straight-Edge Emo
I’ve never had any sort of insurance before either and I’m not sure how the insurance would work where you live but I’ll use my own as an example. I have all-type insurance (same amount for loss of life, limbs, eyes etc) of a £7,500 ($ 11,868) payout to give you an idea.

How come health insurance companies are allowed to discriminate against people with disabilities?

Question by Erin: How come health insurance companies are allowed to discriminate against people with disabilities?
How is it legal for health insurance companies to discriminate against people with disabilities (I mean, medical disabilities), but other companies are not allowed to, like grocery stores are not allowed to? Or maybe it IS legal for other businesses to discriminate against people I am really just curious, that’s all. About the legal process. Health insurance companies kind of make me mad, because of this issue. I know I am expressing a political opinion, but I ask you not to troll. If you have a different opinnion thatn me, you can argue for it, but please don’t start trollin.’

Answer by Josh
You mean in writing policies? That’s one of the reasons we need health care reform, the insurance companies exclude people with pre-existing conditions. Which kind of ruins the whole concept of insurance, which is based on pooled risk.

Good text book for Dr.’s Ofc, but not for Health Facilities, June 12, 1998
By A Customer

If you are attempting to process "Professional" Health Insurance claims for a Doctor’s Office (Form HCFA-1500) this is a good learning text. Includes a diskette for taking tests on your PC. However, there is no information on processing UB-92 Facility and Institutional claims.

it is very detailed and easy to understand, April 21, 1999
By A Customer

I am taking a CPT coding class and my teacher is Ms.Rowell herself. I am so very pleased with this book, for it gives you step by step instructions in a very detailed manner. The layout is terrific, and the examples given in the book give you a sinerio that helps you put a real life situation into perspective. I have not found a better book that explains health insurance. If you are working in a "billing" environment, you should have this book.

handy handbook, January 17, 2001
By 
“blessed165″ (St. Albans, NY United States) – See all my reviews

This book is written in an easy to understand style and anyone running a private billing service or working out of a medical office will find it very useful. It is especially helpful for understanding how to prepare HCFA claims for all third party insurance payers and medicare. I am a medical office manager and I find the book informative with tips to coding appropriately from source documents or superbills. I have recommended it to professional colleagues and billing beginners as well.
