My mom had me under her health insurance, which was from her job, and she moved so my health insurance is about to run out within weeks. I was wondering, I'll be turning 18 in July, and I really don't want to be without health insurance. How can I go about getting it? Will it be too expensive and if so how much do you think it'd be?


Any information would be appreciated :)

For the most part every state regulates their own insurance industry. The cost and availability will depend on where you reside. Some states have a thriving individual market and the rates can be attractive. Cost will then depend on the coverage you want. First dollar coverage will be high. A large deductible/HSA can lower the costs significantly. Find a local broker in your area.
