I went with Regence/Blue Shield here in WA - I used to have them with employeer and they said the Blue Shield would cover insurance in WA AK and Hawaii...

I am older - 40 smoker so my rates are a little higher than for you. I also choose a plan that covered cost for all preventitive care - made the cost go up - physicals annual exams colonoscopy etc.....
I have also a $1000 deductable a little high - but you get 4 doctor office visits free a year then it turns into a $25 co-pay etc... Basically the same plan I paid for when working with a higher deductable... when working the plan cost - $340 a month - buying it myself with higher deductable I pay $555 a quarter...it also has a drug policy card ... many don't.

So there is a company but I would try also with State of Alaska and see if there is a plan for full time residence..I believe there was when googled but I don't qualify. I needed a plan that would work with many states. I am assuming your in Alaska now?

Hope that helps.. I also found mine on a ehealth insurance site..but followed up with phone calls to make sure Doctors and hosipitals in area I was going to be was covered.
