There’s no doubt that those with pre-existing conditions find it difficult to obtain individual health insurance.
In a minority of states, some are able to become a so-called “group of one,” where they become a company. All in the name of obtaining health coverage.
And yes, landscaping happens to be one of the more common fronts for these groups.
This is just one tip that those with pre-existing conditions can use to find health insurance. Elizabeth Cohen, of CNN’s Empowered Patient column, gives four more suggestions, for this “tough, but not impossible” situation.

Unfortunately, Arizona requires a minimum of two people, so my wife and I are stuck. We are a legitimate business, but I’m 68 and could be on Medicare, but since it takes two, we pay $20K a year for private health insurance for both of us. It will be this way for two more years until she turns 65. Yes, we are disgruntled.
