Applied for HSA Health Insurance (Oct 23 2005 23:56 GMT) - I finally got around to applying to an HSA-eligible high-deductible health insurance plan today on eHealthInsurance.com (Please see my previous posts on getting quotes and HSA pros and cons). I kind of dropped the ball, as Open Enrollment for my current insurance ends on 10/31, and I may not get my decision until after that. I was trying to get a State Farm-brokered plan from Assurant (only $65/month), but they don't take applications that far ahead of time (I need to start 1/1/06). I don't have any medical problems except for elevated cholesterol, but that might have raised my rate significantly, and I didn't want to take that chance. |

Dear Reader/Listener:
Lest I be judged for it, I inform you now that this web space is a scratch pad, a space for experimentation. Have fun, enjoy, and read much of it, but try not to read too much into it!
