  • Pay Your BCBSNC health plan with a credit card? - Paying by credit card After you have gone through the quoting process with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina®, and have made a selection, it will be necessary to provide BCBSNC® with the first premium payment. Your credit card will be charged at the the time you accept coverage. It doesn't matter that your insurance policy's effective date is thirty days in the future, they will charge the card immediately. The credit card can be used for the first payment only. You will be billed monthly for all subsequent payments. (Technically, BCBSNC®
  • NC Health Insurance Risk Pool - Starts Jan 1, 2009 - Starting January 1st, 2009, North Carolina will begin offering health insurance coverage to high-risk individuals. It is called the North Carolina high-risk health insurance pool. The state legislature passed Session Law 2007-532 (House Bill 265), AN ACT TO ESTABLISH THE NORTH CAROLINA HEALTH INSURANCE RISK POOL (NCHIRP). The NC High-Risk Health Insurance is not free, however. It is not a welfare program or public assistance. It is, also, not an entitlement program. For years, unhealthy residents of North Carolina have been unable to afford health insurance coverage. Even though Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina offers to insure anybody regardless of pre-existing conditions, in practice it doesn't work well. The problem is the high premium.
  • Choosing The Right Health Insurance Plan For Your Family - One of the most thoughtful decisions that you will have to make in your life is choosing the health insurance for your family. With the cost of health care in the United States increasing every year, trying to pay for medical treatment without health insurance is unimaginable. However, there are countless American families that are forced to do just that. Why do they live without health insurance? Because they cannot find health coverage they can afford, is the main reason. Or perhaps they have pre-existing conditions that their employer provided insurance will not cover. There are many reasons, but the fact is that living without health insurance is unnecessary. It is possible to locate and obtain quality health insurance, at affordable rates. There are important questions to ask yourself before you begin your quest for medical insurance.
  • North Carolina Health Insurance Purchasing - When it comes to purchasing health insurance, most people are not quite sure where to start.

Here are the top ten rules that everyone should follow when it comes to purchasing health insurance on their own: 1. Always check the Financial Rating of the health insurance carrier.
  • Worst Foods To Eat (Part 1) - When it comes down to eating healthy, we’re all a little guilty for eating –eh- not so healthy every once in a while.
  • Worst Foods To Eat (Part 2) - Continuing in the thread of “bad eating,” so far we have learned that there are MUCH better food choices out there that we could be making when it comes to feeding our bodies. Another prime example is ice cream. Ah, ice cream. What would summer days be without a nice pint of Haagen Dazs ice cream to finish off your dinner? For the sake of preserving my own sanity, I am not even going to bother listing how much FAT is in a pint of Haagen Dazs ice cream. I will only suggest that a healthier alternative to ice cream is non-fat frozen yogurt. Depending on where you go to get it, you can’t even tell the difference between good frozen yogurt and a pint of ice cream.
  • Food Cravings And What They Mean (Part 2) - What is it about food that offers us a sense of comfort? Why do we have the term comfort food? Well, as I mentioned last time, when my grandfather died, my grandmother became a sort of recluse and turned to food in a time of depression. You might be surprised to find out that eating is a very emotional process! It usually involves all of our senses. Let’s look at an example. Remember when your mom used to bake homemade apple pie when you were a child?
  • Food Cravings And What They Mean (Part 1) - So, the other day I could barely think straight because I had this really intense craving for Tostitos chips with medium salsa. Or, I would have even settled with French fries- but ONLY if they were from McDonalds because the McDonalds French fries are more crispy and salty. Now, there’s this rumor out there that says that women are the only people who have intense cravings because their hormones are out of control when they are either pregnant or experiencing pre-menstrual symptoms. This, however, is not true. Both men and women alike experience intense cravings when it comes to food because it is your body’s natural way of letting you know that you are deficient in something (usually). I say “usually” here because sometimes a person’s craving for certain food items stems more out of the need to mentally satisfy something else.
  • 9 No-Nonsense Weight Loss Tips - Here are 9 easy-to-do tips to help you lose weight without having to resort to drastic measures: 1 - Control portion sizes Portion sizes can be a controversial topic by themselves.
