Health Insurance for Short-term Situations
If there’s anytime, that you would suddenly lose health insurance, either because you’re a new graduate looking for a job, or someone who just got a job and your health insurance benefit comes into the scene three months after. If you fall somewhere within these types, then you might be interested in looking for a health insurance that will temporarily cover you and/or your family.
Most short-term health insurance has a coverage ranging from 180 days to 12 months tops. It’ll cover accidents or sudden illnesses. You’ll be in charge of picking your own doctor or clinic, and get in and out patient services as well.
The negative side of it all is that it won’t offer all permanent plan benefits. It won’t include pre-existing conditions, routine medical exams, preventive care, optical or dental care, or pregnancy and childbirth expenses.
