I've been on this temporary health coverage thing for a while now, and it's been okay-ish...you know, good enough to keep me from freaking out every time I sneeze weird. But lately, I've been thinking it's probably time to switch to something more stable. Problem is, I honestly have no clue where to start. There's like a million options out there, and reading through all the fine print makes my eyes glaze over.
Anyone here been in the same boat? I'm curious about how you decided what permanent coverage to go with—or if there's certain companies or plans you've had good experiences with. I'm not looking for anything fancy, just something reliable that won't make me go broke every month. Also, if there's any red flags or hidden stuff I should keep an eye out for, definitely let me know. Insurance jargon is like another language sometimes, haha.
Anyway, any tips or personal experiences would be super helpful.

Haha, totally feel you on that. When I switched from temp coverage, I found it helpful to narrow down by checking which providers my regular doctor accepted first—saved me a ton of headaches later. Also, watch out for super low premiums; usually means higher deductibles or sneaky copays. Personally had decent luck with Blue Cross, but your mileage may vary. Good luck!
