bWell International’s Launches New Online Health Plan Forecaster

bWell-informed Health Plan Forecaster, a free health insurance comparison resource for individuals offered by bWell International (New York) has gone live. The tool allows users to project costs associated with their unique health risks and selects the most appropriate health plan option based on those risks.

Based on the software application previously available only to employers, the bWell-informed Health Plan Forecaster includes robust education about a wide range of plan types, a built-in online health risk assessment, as well as tax status and risk tolerance assessments. With the data entered in these assessments, users can explore plan suitability, examine financial scenarios associated with predicted healthcare usage, and compare health insurance options based on their projected health risks.

Once users have compared their options, they can purchase a plan directly through eHealthInsurance.com, the online provider of health insurance for individuals, families and small businesses. More than one million policy lives have been insured nationwide through eHealthInsurance, which brings together thousands of health plans from more than 180 health insurance companies in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
