Self-Employed Health Insurance Guide: Finding Affordable Coverage in 2025

Finding affordable health insurance as a self-employed professional is easier with Aura Insure's guidance and marketplace options

Hey there, fellow self-employed rockstar! 👋

Are you running your own business but feeling stuck about health insurance? Don't worry - I've got your back! As someone who talks to self-employed people every day, I know finding affordable health coverage can feel like solving a puzzle. Let's break it down into simple, bite-sized pieces.

Why You Need Health Insurance When Self-Employed

Think of health insurance like a safety net for your business. Just like you wouldn't drive a car without insurance, you shouldn't run your business without protecting your health! One unexpected hospital visit could cost more than a new car - yikes!

Your Best Options in 2025:

1. Marketplace Plans / ACA

   1. ✅ Often the most affordable choice

   2. ✅ You might get help paying for it

   3. ✅ Can't be turned down for health conditions

Fun fact: Most of our self-employed clients save between $200-500 per month using marketplace tax credits!

2. Health Sharing Ministries

   1. ✅ Sometimes cheaper than traditional insurance

   2. ✅ No enrollment periods

   3. ⚠️ But watch out - they don't cover everything!

      
      

3. Professional Associations

   1. ✅ Group rates might save you money

   2. ✅ Often include extra perks

   3. ⚠️ Check if they're available in your area

      
      

Money-Saving Tips That Actually Work

• Tip #1: Check Your Income

Did you know? If you make between $15,000 and $60,000, you might get super cheap coverage through the marketplace!

• Tip #2: Time It Right Mark your calendar!

Open enrollment runs from November 1st to January 15th. Missing it could cost you big time!

• Tip #3: Look at Your Whole Business

Sometimes, paying a bit more in monthly premiums can save you money on taxes. Smart business thinking!
