Individual health insurance in NY State (long)

[old_cold]

We were faced with the same situation.....husband retired and was Medicare eligible...I was not.

I went to 'Healthy New York' and chose GHI.There are other choices.

Good coverage for me was only $220 a month. That ended last year when I reached 65 so don't know what the premium is now.

If you google Healthy New York, you will find the necessary information.
If you read far enough you'll see that a person who has lost coverage due to the spouse's loss of employer coverage qualifies.
