Short Term Medical Insurance is Simple and Easy
Short Term Medical insurance provides comprehensive temporary health insurance coverage which provides against catastrophic costs of unexpected medical bills. Temporary health insurance is designed for people who need health insurance coverage for 1, 3, 6 and 12 months and may be an ideal solution for those between jobs, an alternative to COBRA, temporary worker, or those newly hired completing a waiting period for other health insurance to start. If you need coverage for longer than 12 months you should research a permanent health insurance plan.
Who is Short Term medical Insurance for?
- Employees between jobs or recently laid off- short term medical is about half the cost of COBRA
- Your COBRA benefits have run out and you need continued coverage until locating employment
- Waiting for employer benefits on a new job- typically there is a 30-90 waiting period for enrollment when you change jobs making a need for temporary health coverage
- Part time or seasonal employees not covered by a group plan
- Newly independent such as students who may not be covered or have left the network area for PPO and HMO coverage under the parents plan also see student health plans for inexpensive alternative
- You have retired and are no longer covered by employer plans and are awaiting Medicare eligibility
- Any temporary need for health insurance
