    If you are receiving Income-based ESA and they say the total amount you need to live on is £104.00 per week, any Personal Health Insurance you receive at £104.00 per week or over will mean you will no longer be entitled to Income-based ESA as your income will exceed your entitlement to ESA (IB) at present.
