One of the biggest obstacles for many of America’s self-employed is the high cost of health insurance. The costs prevent people from purchasing health coverage. Many of these individuals rely on self-medicating, or waiting until a small medical concern becomes an emergency room visit, which could cost hundreds of dollars and become life-threatening.

Imagine this scenario, a small business owner, without health insurance, cuts his/her finger. There are several options: 1) the person might try and bandage it up and keep going about their day, but may run the risk of later infection, improper healing, etc., or 2) the person might visit the local ER for stitches, which could cost several hundred dollars, a lengthy wait-time before being seen due to more severe trauma cases, and an increase in missed time from work. However, a third option is available…visiting your family physician.
