NORCROSS, GA, November 07, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Georgia health insurance broker McCart Insurance understands that there are times when using your parents' health insurance can be difficult or embarrassing. For those times, students may wish to consider finding their own affordable health insurance in Georgia.
The most common time for students to encounter problems with health insurance in Georgia is when their parents are based in another state. Some insurance companies may not have the preferred providers they require in your college community or some may require students pay for out-of-state visits themselves and then wait for reimbursement.
Another reason that students may wish to consider having their own individual insurance plan in Georgia in addition to their parents' plan is differences in coverage. Parental plans may not have all the coverage for illness and injury that a college student wants or needs.
Students may also consider getting their own insurance plans to avoid having to send some insurance claims through their parents' insurance where parents are likely to find out about it. Doctors' visits for birth control, for example, may not be something that students want to share with their parents or their parents' employer.
Getting their own health insurance plan can be another way that students prepare for the future. While new laws allow children to stay on their parents' insurance longer, discussing health insurance options and finding a new personal plan while still covered under their parents' policy gives students the assurance that they will always have coverage. In the unlikely event that the parent loses their coverage, the student still has insurance.
Alicia McCart, CEO, understands that health insurance is a very personal decision. "We know that supplemental coverage can help students avoid unexpected expenses and show just how adept they are at making adult decisions."
