::Article:: How do work at home parents get health coverage?
Written by:
Stephanie Foster
It's wonderful being able to
work at home, whether for another company or by starting your own
business. However, many work at home options do not include insurance
coverage, which is a major problem, especially if you have children.
Fortunately, there are options, depending on the degree of coverage
required.
Coverage for yourself or your
entire family may be more difficult. One solution is to contact a company
which will give you free insurance quotes, such as Insurecom.com. Places
such as this offer a range of insurance options, but they themselves are
not insurance companies themselves. However, they can save you a
tremendous amount of research.
Now, if you just can't
get insurance any other way, you may have to go with a health care
discount card. This is not insurance. It gives you a preset discount on
services from participating doctors, discounts on prescriptions, and so
forth. This is offered by companies such as
http://www.HealthCare.com.
Individual insurance is
far more expensive than what you paid when you were working for a company
that provided your insurance, but it is vital that you keep some sort of
coverage for the protection of your family. Make sure you do your
research, get opinions on any company you are considering. The peace of
mind will be worth the cost. Stephanie Foster is the owner of Home with the Kids, a resource that knows that there's more to staying home with your family than just business. From money saving tips to parenting and marriage tips, to work at home jobs and businesses, you can get information and support here. You can visit the site at http://www.homewiththekids.com.
::Home Party Games:: Ask Me About My Job This game is great for slipping in lots of sponsoring seeds as well as having fun! It’s called “Ask Me About My Job”.
Have a roll of tickets (the kind you’d use for a 50/50 draw). Say “For the next 3 minutes we’re going to play ‘Ask Me About My Job’. The first person to come up with a question will get 3 tickets, the 2nd person will get 2 and every question after that earns 1 ticket.” Questions like “How many hours do you work a week?” and “How long have you been doing it?” will start coming at you. Answer them as positively as possible. Ie. “I only work evenings and weekend because I want to be home with my children.” “I’ve been doing this job for 18mos and I’ve never had so much.”
At the end of the Q & A you can either draw for a prize right then and there, or you can tell the guests to hang on to their tickets and do a little more Q & A towards the end of the party (they may have thought of other questions by then).
It’s a lot of fun when the questions start coming in fast and furious… guests try to out-do each other and ask the most questions (they want to be the one with the most tickets) and it’s GREAT for teaching people about your business and how it might benefit them.
