How does health insurance work in terms of payment?

February 8th, 2012
Emily K asked:


Let’s say there’s a family, and there’s three different prescriptions for different medications within the family. Let’s say the Dad is paying for health insurance. Do you just pay for health insurance once, when you register for it? Do you pay $20 monthly? Does the price you pay go up when you add more medications? I’m confused.

How does health insurance portability work?

February 7th, 2012
Misty L asked:


I lost my job in December and lost health insurance. In August I will be able to get health insurance through a program at a state college I wil be attending. Is this too long of a lapse to cover pre-existing conditions? PA BTW.

What would a health inspector do if he finds mold in an apartment?

February 4th, 2012
SheIsDeath asked:


There is a health inspection for all apartments in my building tomorrow. We have a couple small (one maybe 18 inches long, varying in width half an inch to about three inches, the other just a maybe 2″ x 2″ patch in the other corner) patches of mold in our ceiling along the corners. It’s been there for a while, and spreads extremely slowly. As we’ve never noticed any smells or health problems, we’ve never taken action on it.

I’m just wondering, what course of action will likely be taken when the apartment manager and health inspector see it?

Can I reimburse myself health insurance costs from my company?

January 27th, 2012
Jackie S asked:


We used to have individual health insurance, and I would pay for it out of my own company (an S Corp). When we got insurance through my husband’s employer, I stopped reimbursing myself.
He is paid for by the company, and then it costs extra to add myself and our child.

I was just going to deduct health insurance premiums on our Sch A, but we don’t have enough other medical expenses to meet the limit.

Is it ligit to go ahead and reimburse myself the amount that it cost for the health insurance? Then it would be a business expense. Thanks.

What are some health benefits of apples?

January 27th, 2012
Fool for the City asked:


I’ve started having an apple (or more) a day, in part to keep the doctor away, but also because I finally found a place nearby that sells good apples fairly consistently. I was wondering what some of the health benefits are - I’ve heard that apples can help you run better, for one thing, and was wondering if that was true. Also I’ve been told they’re pretty high in fiber. What else are they good for? And which color of apples (red vs green) is better for you, from a health standpoint, or does it really matter?

Is there a good health insurance for college students?

January 22nd, 2012
asked:


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?

What health problems are needed in order to qualify for gastric bypass surgery?

January 18th, 2012
nikki r asked:


What types of health problems are needed to qualify to have gastric bypass surgery? Do you only qualify if you have severe health problems caused by this or could you qualify if you have smaller health problems like knee arthritis & breathing problems? Most of my family is obese and have heart disease, sleep apnea. Would they take that into consideration? My sister had gastric bypass surgery with a starting weight at 208 and is down to 128. I don’t think she had any medical problems due to her obesity.

What does a health care specialist do in the army?

December 10th, 2011
health care
Jenny Smith asked:


I want to go in the army national guard, so I’m going to join when I turn 17. I either want to be a health care specialist or a mental health special. I’m leaning more twisted mental health. I’d like to know what kind of schooling is required( like how much college) and what you take in college. Also i wanna know what kind of jobs you do. Thanks.
It should say I’m leaning more toward a mental health specialist…. Not twisted.

How would Universal Health Care work in the US?

December 10th, 2011
health care
Mike asked:


What does it cover, would someone need something from the government to go to the doctor like a insurance card. Will stuff like surgeries be cover also if needed (like removing a tumor, not plastic surgery). And would this inspire more people to go into medical careers? And when would this Health Care take place? When would it start?
