If you're young and healthy, you may think you don't need health insurance. Or that it's too expensive. Or not worth the trouble.
A few things to think about
- When you apply for insurance using Nevada Health Link, you'll find out if you qualify for savings that can make insurance less expensive. You may save on out-of-pocket costs too, meaning you'll have a lower deductible and pay less each time you get care.
- You can pick a Catastrophic health plan - a way to protect yourself from worst-case scenarios.
- Applying can be easy and fast. If you're single or have a pretty straightforward family situation, applying and finding out what savings you qualify for won't take much time at all.
Protection and quality care when bad things happen
- Nobody plans to get sick or hurt, but bad things happen - even to healthy people. A broken leg can cost $7,500 to treat. Three days in the hospital can cost $30,000.
- If you're paying for every medical service yourself, you may make some health care decisions based on money instead of what's best for your health.
Complete coverage
- All Nevada Health Link insurance plans cover ER services, doctor and hospital charges, pregnancy, treatment for all pre-existing conditions, mental health and substance abuse services, lab work, and a list of essential health benefits. Some include dental coverage.
- Plans cover services like breast cancer screenings for women and a whole range of preventive services for all adults and children.
- All plans are offered by private insurance companies that compete for your business based on features and price.
