Get ready for the future of health insurance already available in Miami Dade. The new Miami Dade Blue plan has a $250 deductible and the average premium for the plan is less than $100 per month. The condition of the Miami-Dade health insurance market is looking much better for residents of this beleaguered county this year. This is in spite of the rapidly rising health care costs, and mounting job losses from the extended recession. The main factor that was affecting Miami health insurance quotes of course was the expense of having so many uninsured in one county coupled with excessive fraudulent claims and frivolous lawsuits. However, there are many other factors that contributed to Miami-Dade county being one of the most difficult places to find quality, affordable health coverage for such a long time that are beyond the scope of this article. What has improved this situation dramatically recently, for the residents of Miami is the release of the new Miami Dade Blue health insurance plan from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida and its wonderful City Commissioner Joe Martinez. Mr. Martinez and his staff deserve special recognition and perhaps even a collective kiss from Miami residents for his efforts on behalf of his constituents for giving them their first ray of hopeful sunshine to complement the 100 degree heat. These new Miami Dade Blue plans are priced at least 50% less (sometimes even more) then the traditional health plans in Miami and accomplish this without any subsidies from the state or Federal government.
