Parents lost job and health insurance...how do i get coverage now?

Find a new job, or go buy private health insurance, like you buy private car insurance.

Pretty simple.

You can't expect mommy and daddy to provide your health coverage forever, you know.

In most cases, when a job is lost, there is an option to pay money to keep the insurance coverage for at least 18 months.

However, in case that is not an option, you should apply to a health insurance company in your state to purchase your own health insurance, and pay for it, with your own money.

If you're 19 or old, call an insurance broker and buy health insurance.

What you should do now is contact an agent that works with all of the major companies in your area and buy your own individual plan.

I guess it would be time to purchase your own insurance.
