How Health Insurance for 1099 Gig Workers Can Be Affordable Lets Review GigCare in Nebraska

from America's Healthcare Advocate

If you’re a 1099 employee you are part of what’s called the GIG economy, and you know that finding good, affordable health insurance is difficult, if not impossible. In this episode of America's Healthcare advocate, I'll explore GigCare, offering a variety of affordable plans with doctor office copays, labs, x-rays, prescription drugs and major medical coverage, just like traditional employer sponsored healthcare plans have and GigCare provides access to one of the largest PPO networks of doctors and hospitals in Nebraska. Learn about this inovative plan from our expert guest Richard Haldeman: "So if you think about what we were trying to solve at Detego Health... a company that really wanted to develop products to address the needs of the market as opposed to just administering somebody else's plans. So we noticed right away two things. One is cost related to plan, meaning small employers as individual gig economy workers couldn't afford to have a plan that they could work with and there was really no products out there that addressed directly that segment of the market. So, you know, the largest segment of our market is the self-employed individual. So whether you're a computer programmer, web design web designer an Uber driver or if you have an Amazon delivery truck, one of the major concerns we heard from the market and everything we do is based on what we hear from the market is that there wasn't anything out there a decent plan for them."
