I saw a reference to the fact that if you qualify for COBRA coverage, you can't
get individual insurance (in PA). Since my COBRA coverage would be twice as
much as if I got my own, I prefer to skip the COBRA, anybody who knows for
sure can confirm that? Also I like to lock into a insurance carrier while I'm still
in good health. If its a PA regulation, I could find a carrier in my current state
(NC) and switch residency if I use one of the carriers MKLD mention in the other
thread.
Also if I spend a majority of my time outside the USA, is there any
gotcha's regarding health insurance, is this something explicit (foreign coverage)
that I need to look for or ask for?
I'm assuming HSA can be used to pay for medical fees no matter what country
I'm in, yes?
Thanks, Tom
