There’s a very good chance health insurance rates will go up in 2014. Way up.
One way to avoid that is to lock in your premium now until the end of 2014. There are many health insurance carriers who are offering new clients the opportunity to lock in 2013 rates a little longer than usual. UnitedHealthOne (Golden Rule Health Insurance), for example, has just announced that they will be holding benefits and prices for new clients until the end of 2014.
And, trust us, this is a good thing.
Some carriers, on the other hand, will be moving all of their clients into 2014 pricing on January 1 or upon their renewal. We believe it’s to your advantage to put off that renewal as long as you can!
