Short Term Health Insurance
Short Term health insurance is a great way to cover you and your family when you have a temporary break in coverage. If you are between jobs, fulfilling a waiting period with your current employer, or have a break in coverage for some other reason, then a short term plan may be right for you. Keep in mind that short term plans do not cover pre-existing conditions; they are only meant to be used to protect from accidents and sudden onset illnesses. The good news is that the underwriting for these plans is very limited and you don’t have to worry about being rated up for a pre-existing condition. We only recommend a temporary health insurance plan if you have a somewhat definitive date on which a more permanent health plan will start. Once you buy a short term policy and choose your date of coverage, you will not be able to renew with that same company.
