I have everything pretty much ready to launch full time. Time, skills, customers, support from family. But I’d leave my current job behind and with it my family’s health insurance for the foreseeable future. I can’t afford any of the options I’ve seen. It’s the one thing holding me back. Any ideas for affordable health insurance for startups? If you’ve been in the same situation, what did you end up doing?

    I started doing medical tourism. If I have anything big like a root canal or the like, I hop over to another country, take care of it and come back.

    Even with flights factored in, it’s way cheaper than paying premiums every month until you actually need it added to the eventual obscene hospital or clinic bill.

    Circumstances obviously apply, but it’s a very straightforward solution to high medical costs and worth looking into.
