Temporary Health Insurance
If you are between jobs and are
expecting to start a new one very soon
that offers benefits, or are an early
retiree who does not yet qualify for
Medicare, Short Term Health Insurance is
something you should consider. Before
these other medical benefits kick in
short term medical coverage can protect
you in the event of an unexpected
illness or injury. Short-term medical
plans are very cost effective, and the
plans we offer allow you to choose your
doctors and hospitals and pay 100% of
covered expenses once your deductible
and coinsurance amounts have been met.
Short Term Medical Insurance is
basically “Major Medical” or
Catastrophic Insurance. In other words
it is not designed to pay for regular
doctors visits but rather protect you
from devastating financial losses in the
event of hospital, surgical and other
expenses incurred as a result of
medically necessary care for a covered
illness or injury. Subject of course, to
any deductibles or rate of payment
provisions set forth in the policy.
