Short-term medical insurance provides limited coverage as a temporary bridge. Short-term medical can be used in circumstances where you do not yet qualify for a group insurance plan, or you are waiting for the next open enrollment. Some people choose short-term medical insurance as temporary coverage in case of an emergency if they are suddenly without coverage for a variety of reasons. Here are a few examples:
- Leaving a job that had a health insurance plan and you do not have a Cobra benefit offerings
- Retiring early and looking for temporary insurance until qualifying for Medicare
- No longer qualifying for a group plan due to divorce
- Moving to a new state where an existing plan cannot follow and waiting until a new plan starts
- Students or young adults turning 26 who no longer qualify for their parent’s insurance
- People who want to have a plan with no network and find ACA plans too expensive
