▲ 3 ▼ Insurance in US (lemm.ee) submitted 3 years ago by Moohamin12@lemm.ee to c/asklemmy@lemmy.world 13 comments fedilink hide all child comments Hello, I have a question about the healthcare insurance in US. I have heard that it is tied to your employment and the company provides for it. So here are a couple of questions: Is there no way for an individual to get their own personal insurance and not be dependent on the company? What about freelancers, business owners and retirees? Do they forfeit their insurances?
[–] Moohamin12@lemm.ee [S] 2 points 3 years ago That does sound deceptively hard for individuals to be not dependent on a job for them to qualify for proper healthcare in the US though. Pricing you out of your own care is pretty hard to hear. permalink fedilink source parent
