A year or so ago I got the freebie quotes for health insurance from the ehealthinsurance.com website and was pleasantly surprised at the most reasonable quotes I received. I dutifully reported this on one of these boards and was informed that the rates quoted only apply to those in perfect health with no record of having ever taken an aspirin, YMMV, or something like that.
I was told that a normal human bean who's had a prescription or two filled in the course of his lifetime should expect a much higher quote after submitting a real application, along with my application fee.
I've had a couple of bumps, bruises, and breaks in my life, had a knee reworked once (ACL), and for a short time took these pills that were supposed to make me less of a mope, which they sort of did, but only when I wasn't sleeping, which was most of the time.
Can any of you give me a few data points on the difference between the freebie online quote and what you actually wound up paying, so I can come up with a reasonable fudge factor?
Thanks,
Cb
