We are in the process of looking for a new health insurance company for our firm. Any suggestions? Firms we should avoid? Advice? Please help!!!

Try a medical savings account with a high end deductible. That will dramatically reduce your monthly payments and it will cover you for catastrophic events. We use a subsidiary of United Health Care and have been very happy with them.

Here is an article that I refered to when we were researching what to do with our healthcare program. I hope it helps:

Self Employed Health Insurance Plans

Thanks for the article Triton that was helpful!

I would strongly encourage you to find an independent insurance agent to help you through the selection of the program. That is what they get paid for and it is a complicated field with a lot of options. I would check a thread in this forum for ideas on how to select a broker it will be well worth your time. Good luck
