Health Insurance Tip #6 — Between jobs? Need help purchasing a short term health plan.
January 13, 2010
Many of us know more and more people who are looking for temporary medical coverage these days. By temporary and short term, we mean anywhere from a few days to months (up to 1 year.) People in need of these short term options might be between jobs or maybe they have had work hours reduced so they are no longer eligible for group benefits offered by their employer.
Either case, these people and their families are often in search of economical solutions for temporary medical coverage. Ultimately these folks are probably hoping to find a job that offers medical benefits or, will want to enroll in a better plan once income becomes a little more steady. Nonetheless, many people are in a situation where they need to locate inexpensive medical coverage for the catastrophic “what if’s” so they do not leave their families vulnerable during a time of transition.
There are several carriers that offer short term plans and each plan comes with different benefits and, of course, a different premium. There is probably an option that adequately suits each unique situation and that’s where we can help!
