Is Short Term Medical Insurance right for me?

Is Short Term Health Insurance right for me?

It makes sense if you have one of the following situations:

  • Between jobs
  • Seeking a less expensive alternative to COBRA**
  • Waiting for employer benefits
  • Temporary or seasonal employment
  • A recent graduate about to start a new job

** If you purchase Short Term Medical rather than maintaining COBRA coverage, you may give up your rights to coverage for pre-existing conditions or guaranteed health insurance in the future.
