Buying your own health insurance is the process of obtaining health insurance coverage that is not provided by an employer or government program. This can be done through a variety of channels, including online marketplaces, insurance agents, and directly from insurance companies.
There are many reasons why you might need to buy your own health insurance. You may be self-employed, a freelancer, or a student. You may have recently lost your job and your employer-sponsored health insurance. Or, you may simply be unhappy with the coverage offered by your employer or government program.
