In addition to traditional managed care plans (your health care bills are covered only when you visit a practitioner or hospital included on a list of your health insurance provider’s network) and fee-for-service plans (more expensive in comparison with managed care plans but you can choose your own doctor), California health insurance companies offer sever health insurance plans which can be found only in this state.
California Major Medical Insurance Plan (MRMIP) was designed specially for those state’s residents who can’t purchase any type of traditional individual health insurance plan. In order to purchase this health insurance plan you have to meet several strong requirements: you must be California resident, you must be ineligible for Medicare plan (parts A and B) and COBRA and finally you must prove that you are unable to purchase adequate health insurance plan and coverage without assistance.
