Insurance and multiple agencies

[alwayslearnin]

Greetings fellow travelers,

I have been speaking with other travelers who use more than one agency so they more opportunities of aquiring jobs. Great, got that concept-but now I am wondering, if you go from one agency to another, how do you keep your insurance going, or do you? I like the idea of working with more than one agency, but need insurance for self and hubby.

Thoughts/experiences???

Thank you for your reply

Purchase an individual policy and have agency pay you tax free stipend for not taking insurance. Most seem to pay between 250.00-350.00 a month if you have your own policy.

I agree. I have my own insurance policy as well. If you have some serious preexisting conditions, you might want to Cobra your existing insurance, or find an agency with decently priced group health policy and Cobra it after your assignment. Cobra lasts for 18 months.
