Buying insurance on your own will cost you up the @$$.
My insurance is through COBRA right now, since I got laid off. My old payroll deduction for me by myself was about $40 a week. Now that I'm paying the full premiums under COBRA, it's going to cost me $400 for May, or $100 a week to buy that company insurance on my own. OUCH.
Shopping for individual policies, I can probably get that down to $50 a week if I accept a high deductible, and a 30% copay.
Health insurance is a big reason not to drive for an O/O. This situation sucks. I'm trying to get on my wife's insurance, now that I no longer have insurance through my employer.
