You can buy your own health insurance in the private health insurance market. Zirkelbach advises shopping around and taking a careful look at what you're buying, including:
- Co-payments: a dollar amount you're expected to pay for doctor visits or prescriptions
- Co-insurance: a percentage of medical bills that you're responsible for
- In-network and out-of-network doctors: If you have a specific doctor in mind, ask the doctor's office or the health insurance company if that doctor is in the company's network of physicians.
- Formularies: Find out if your medications are covered and what you would pay for them.
