[Summit] Finding decent & affordable individual health care coverage

[Art Norwalk]

The individual health insurance market in Rhode Island is virtually 
non-existent. Blue Cross offers something in a limited enrollment 
window once a year. If you are or can plausibly present yourself as 
self-employed you might look into the Good Neighbor Alliance 
(http://www.goodneighborall.com/).

Unfortunately, getting both decent and reasonable is unlikely.

Good luck.
