There are some health insurance companies that will continue coverage past 60 IF you enroll prior to 60, but none I know of that will initiate a new policy once past 60.
Alida & I have "basic" coverage through employment with Palic (I have used it several times recently with no issues at all). We went to expand coverage and were told that since I'm past 60 no can do.
BUT
If we had a "group" of 3+ they would.
So that is what we did: formed a small group. We made application for a very solid policy, were approved (with specific reasonable exclusions) have paid premiums and coverage is in effect. Our premiums are $RD1440-2060 per month, depending on what other insurance we have.
We have also been told that others can join our group.
So I have this to offer: if you are in reasonable health, could use health insurance and would like to join our group, drop me a PM with your email & phone and I'll fill you in on the details.
There is nothing in it for us. This is only as a service to DR1 members who need health insurance in the DR. And note: In no way is this connected to DR1 in any manner of form.
