Health Insurance For Truck Drivers

At Health Search, We help you find health insurance that works for you. Trucking is classified as a high-risk profession according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics because of long work hours and sleep deprivation, which increase the chances of accidents. An estimated 70% of truck drivers have at least one serious health condition, which is why health insurance is very important for truckers to have. Call us to speak to a licensed agent to find the best plan for you.

Affordable Health Insurance Plans For Truck Drivers

Truck drivers are essential to our economy. In the United States, nearly 1 out of every 15 individuals in the workforce is employed in the trucking industry, including over 7 million truck drivers on our interstates and roads. Due to an unhealthy lifestyle and lack of good nutritional options while trucking, truck drivers are categorically one of the unhealthiest populations in the United States. Because of the challenges facing this population, the average life expectancy of drivers is only 61 years (Global Insight May 2005).

Statistics from the National Institute of Health show that more than 50 percent of truck drivers are obese, compared to the national rate of 26.7 percent. Compared to the general population, the prevalence of diabetes is 50 percent higher and 87 percent of truck drivers have hypertension or pre-hypertension, compared to the national average of 58.3 percent (JOEM 2009).

At first we were skeptical about meeting John to switch, but after he worked with us to get down to the bottom of what we were spending for our household, we ended up saving $622 a month on health insurance. I’m so happy my husband and I took the leap to meet with you!

Frequently Questions About Our Health Insurance For Truck Drivers

SHOULD TRUCK DRIVERS GET HEALTH INSURANCE?

While we think that every truck driver should have coverage, many drivers do not, or they only have a minimal amount of coverage that does not cover their basic needs, let alone the needs of their family members.

Most long-haul truck drivers report having two or more unhealthy behaviors or conditions that can be a threat to their long term health. Being at a high risk for personal injury, It is highly recommended for truck drivers to get good coverage from their health insurance.

WHAT IS SHORT TERM HEALTH INSURANCE?

Short term health insurance fills in gaps between coverages. It is used when you’re between trucking jobs, waiting for a coverage plan to begin, waiting to become eligible for Medicare, or you’re without health insurance. This is not a long term solution and should only be relied on while you are between insurance coverages.

The coverage of short term health insurance for truck drivers is limited. Short term plans provide drug discounts, but typically do not provide drug coverage.

WHAT IS GAP HEALTH INSURANCE AND WHAT DOES IT DO FOR TRUCKERS?

Gap health insurance is a supplemental health plan that fills in the gaps of your main health plan. It acts like a cushion for truck drivers who have high-deductible health care plans. It’s almost like having an insurance plan for your insurance plan. The goal is to lower your overall out of pocket costs by providing funds to pay for a large deductible until your main insurance policy comes into effect.

WHAT ARE TRUCKING INSURANCE COMPANIES?

There are companies that specialize in trucking insurance. Most of these companies are regional companies that will be able to provide services for you in your home state. We can assist you in finding the best health insurance through one of these insurance companies.

What is Gap Insurance for healthcare plans?

Gap insurance, simply put, is a group supplemental medical product designed to provide healthcare benefits that cover certain out-of-pocket medical expenses as a result of medical treatment. It is paired with the employer’s medical plan based on the medical deductibles available to the employees.

What is the Affordable Care Act?

The Affordable Care Act is the comprehensive health care reform law enacted in March 2010 (sometimes known as ACA, PPACA, or “Obamacare”). The healthcare law provides consumers with subsidies (premium tax credits) that lower costs for households with incomes between 100% and 400% of the federal poverty level (FPL).
