In this time when money is tight, there are a few things you can change in your life that may well help you make your money go a little further. Health insurance is one of them.

When was the last time you really took note of what your health insurance costs and what you are getting for the price? Do you even know what is in your policy? Now may be the time to take a closer look.

First, look over your current policy and make a list of the things you need that ARE covered. Now make a list of the things you need that are NOT covered. How much of a difference would it make on your yearly medical bills if you had that additional coverage? This is an important question to ask. While it may cost more to find a health insurance policy with the extra coverage, if the savings is more than the cost for the extra coverage then you may want to consider a change.

Here are a few things to consider

Drug Policy

Many health insurance companies have an optional drug program these days. You have to pay more if you want to be in this program. If you only have one prescription a month or none, this may not be worth the money to fund. After all, if you are paying an extra $20 a month and you don’t know if you will even use the coverage it may be just as well that you put that money away to use if you need it.

Dental Health Care Coverage

Some insurance companies will allow you to take on a dental plan. While you may not think you need a lot of work done, just regular preventative dental usually balances out the cost of this coverage. If you need any work done, any coverage will lessen the impact of the bill.

Vision Health Care Coverage

Do you wear glasses or contacts? Many health insurance companies will let you add on a vision coverage program to their plans. This is a smart way to go. You don’t want to take any chances with your vision, so you should have it regularly checked. Also, the sooner you realize there are problems and can start to correct them the better. You are more likely to be able to catch them early if you have coverage and are regularly having your vision checked.
