Start calling insurance companies and ask for a quote. M-I-C (Medical Insurance Consultants) offer locum insurance cover, dental insurance and medical insurance. They are a dental insurance agency. Give them ago. A deductible is the amount you ,pay out of pocket before the benefits kick in. I found them on the net. The link is below.
