Default Re: Will I Have Trouble Getting Health Insurance?

Thanks for the input.....
I have 2 more questions that maybe someone can help with:
1) Are there group plans that will let me join even as a retired (technically unemployed) person? I have not been at my current job long enough to retire, and I left my last job before I was eligible. So when I retire, I really quit. Does AARP have health insurance plan?
2) Realizing that everything depends (what kind of shape I'm in, what kind of coverage I want, etc), what can I expect to pay for either an individual or group plan with "decent" coverage and a choice of doctors? eHealthinsuranc.com quotes something around $7K per year. I'm trying to develop a decent budget for my fixed income...

Thanks Again,
Steve
