How can I get health insurance for my parents


How can I get health insurance for my parents?
My parents are in their early 50's, and do not have health insurance. They are struggling with money, so paying for health insurance is the last thing on their minds.
 Can I purchase health insurance for them? I have never purchased insurance before (I have always received it through employers). Some facts: › We live in NJ › They own their own small business › They are NOT my dependents › They are in good shape - no pre-existing medical problems Any advice or point in the right direction is appreciated!

Your parents raised you right! Yes you can pay for there insurance. You can contact an insurance broker or you can contact the insurance company. Beware of companies to be claiming to be health insurance company's. They can rip you off. Google them and see what kind of Company they really are. Go with companies you are familiar with.
2 :
Contact a LOCAL agent that works with all of the major companies in your area. The agent can help you find them the best plan for their situation and budget. The agent can explain what you get and, more importantly, what you don't get with each policy. There is no extra charge using an agent. Your parents will have to sign for the policy but you are allowed to pay.
