My boyfriend and I have been living together for less than a year and do plan to get married, but I was...?

wondering if there's anyway he can add me to his health & dental insurance without being married yet? The insurance I have through my job really SUCKS!
--------------------
There are a very FEW employers across the US, who will allow you to add a "domestic partner" to the policy - but they'd have to be DECLARED OFFICIALLY a domestic partner. It's MOST likely that you can't be added without being married. But he'd have to check with his employer to be sure.

where is there a dentist who bases fees on income? (texas answers only please)?

My husband is in need of major dental surgery and we have no dental insurance. He is in pain all the time but honestly, who can afford a regular dentist, especially with all the work he has to have.
--------------------
Check you might have a dental school in your area they do dental work for a fraction of a cost They are students but the do all work with some one who is board certified . Hope this helps

2 health insurance plans?

Currently I am using my wife's health insurance plan (which is very great) and not using anything from my company which states "We currently offer medical (including prescriptions) and dental coverage. The Company will contribute up to $300 per month to the cost of such coverage." What would you guys recommend in this situation? My wife's insurance plan is worth a lot more than $300 a month and it makes no sense that I leave it. What should I do in this situation? For instance, my current insurance deductible is $500. Could I add some kind of secondary insurance thru my company which would take that deductible down to $0? Thanks
--------------------
If you are happy with your wife's plan and assuming her company does not pay any of the premium for you and you don't have a problem with that then stay with your current option. If you sign up for your group plan your group plan will be primary. However the cost burden of using your wife's plan as secondary typically isn't cost justified. The cost of using your wife's plan as secondary is probably higher than the out of pocket expenses associated with your own group plan. Depending on your state and carrier in the event of your wife loses her job you may be able to sign up for your group plan without having to wait for the open enrollment period. You need to check with your hr people to on this issue.

Any dental insurance plans that cover Invisalign?

I know that most insurance plans that cover braces will usually cover part of invisalign .. but im having a hard time finding a good plan. Any suggestions??
--------------------
DONT GET INVISLAGIN. I got invislagin about a year ago, and it straightened my teeth quite a bit, but they are still crocked the dentist said it is because invislagin straightens from the top of your teeth instead the front like normal braces. As far as insurances goes...I dont think insurance covers them, but I could br wrong, I just know my insurance didnt cover them. Just DONT get invislagin get regular braces.

For those people who think Health Care is a Right. What about Dental Care? Home and Life Insurance?

and then Auto Insurance? I certainly can not live without my teeth. My family will be on the street if I die so I need life insurance too! I can not go to work without my car so what about auto insurance??? Gee, I can not live without my toilet paper, toothbrush so I demand Obama to supply for me too!
--------------------
It's all a slippery slope. When we begin to see ourselves as having a 'right' to force others to provide us with things, we have lost our way.

Can you ever tax write off Medical or dental bills, or even medical insurance?

Doesn't hurt to ask =)
--------------------
Yes, to the extent that they exceed 7.5% of your AGI and you itemize deductions. However, if any were paid with pre-tax dollars via a Section 125 plan at work then they're already tax-preferenced and cannot be deducted again.

I need dental work but have no insurance?

im a college student and i need some dental work what options do i have besides letting them rot?
--------------------
First have you been to dentist recently? Did they give you a total estimate of the cost of your treatment? Most offices carry financing options for your dental work. An other option you might consider is going to the University School of Dentistry or Community College school of dentistry in your area they usually are on a sliding scale, this means they charge you according to your gross income per year. I work in a dentist office, if you need any advice just ask....hope this helps

Can you claim medical expenses and school expenses on your taxes?

I had a wisdom tooth pulled last your that I did pay out of pocket no insurance cost about $1200, Also paid to take a dental assistant program which cost $1200. Would I be able to claim these expenses when i file? I already claim my son and last year I got back about 4k. So would it help me get back a little more if I added on the 1200 medical expense and 1200 school expense?
--------------------
You don't state your income, but if it's less than $15,000 these won't make a difference. You already get $8000 as head of household, so $1200 of itemized deductions won't do better than that. If you don't owe income tax, an education credit can't do better than zero....

Can the court make me disenroll my children from my insurance benefits?

I've had my children enrolled under my insurance plans under my employer (Dental, medical, vision,etc). My soon-to-be ex has also enrolled them under her employer. In previous conversations, she has admitted to me that the judge will order me to terminate my benefits for them under my employer, since she has physical custody and I will have to pay her more than what I've been paying for child-care. There is no order for this money I send her. I send it because it's my obligation.
--------------------
Get a lawyer so you can get the support on paper and she can not say you are not paying. The court will not make you take them off.

Looking for health Insurance?

I'm looking for affordable health insurance with good coverage and options for doctors. A PPO is okay but I'm looking for quality AND affordability. Dental and vision would be a great plus. Can anybody out there help me!?!
--------------------
Ultimately, you are the one who determines the affordability of your health insurance plan by deciding how much you will participate in sharing the cost of your health care with your insurance company. You decide what the right balance is between affordability and policy benefits. If you choose a plan that covers everything i.e. doctors office visits, prescription drugs, preventative health benefits, maternity coverage as well as low deductibles, low co-pays and optional vision and dental benefits your monthly premiums will be significant. On the other hand if you are young, presumably healthy and probably use the health care system sparingly you could consider a plan that covers only the major health catastrophe. If that is too scary consider a plan with a higher in hospital deductible, higher co-pays for doctor's office visits and perhaps not cover prescription drugs.. Either of these approaches will result in a lower monthly premium. You then can use the monthly premium savings to pay for the occasional doctor visit or prescription and still come out ahead. You need a trusted adviser to help you through the process of purchasing health insurance so that you understand what you are purchasing. That adviser can answer questions as to what is and is not covered by the policy, explain deductibles and co-pays and show you the hospitals and doctors that participate in the network. Check with the agent that writes your home or auto insurance he/she can provide you a health insurance proposal that takes into account your budget and health situation. Some are going to suggest you go to their web site so that they can earn a few pennies on a "click through". Some may suggest going on line to get a quote but you probably already know that there is much more to a good health insurance policy than price. Use the Internet to educate yourself but use an agent to purchase the coverage.

Do I have a cavity and what to do about insurance?

When food gets between 2 particular molars, it hurts. It's kind of like a dull pain. Sometimes, my gums between those two teeth also swell. But the swelling on happens occasionally, and goes away. The pain also stops when the food comes out, but this doesn't happen when food gets between any other teeth. Do you think I have a cavity on one of these two teeth? I can't just go get it checked out unless I am almost certain it is something wrong because I have NO insurance. Are there any good dental plans that take effect immediately when it comes to fillings? I know the discount plans do, but I don't even know if I need a filling yet.
--------------------
health-quotes.talk4fun.net - my family have this health insurance. It is affordable and has good coverage for dental issues.

How do you handle ppl who call the office and start yelling about a bill?

We never refuse to explain a bill, but a few patients have called and screamed bloody murder about some amount not paid by the insurance company and marked on the insurance statement (EOB-explanation of benefits) "Patient Responsibility" or "Insurance deductible." The amount owed could be as little as $20 and over $100 (depends on the ins. co). This office is a dental office and I mean ppl shouting and not letting staff get one word in.
--------------------
If people start shouting at you, simply say that if they continue to shout, you will end the call. If they continue, state that this call is over, and hang up.

It is advisable to take, CPA law. If you have a high intellect you will surely ace it. If you take this course you could be a CEO of a company, which by the way includes a lot of perks. You also need to have a Masters and a PH. D to qualify.

Even if I dont have insurance, money? I go back to work tomorrow and I don't want to go without a tooth.
--------------------
The only thing you could get done quickly is a make shift temporary depending on how much of the broken tooth is left. And yes you need money to purchase services.
