Temporary Health Insurance

Sometimes people find themselves in a bind and in need of health insurance for just a short term so they can avoid a lapse in health coverage. These days there are many options available just for this purpose. In fact most carriers have a short term policy to match this popular need.

Temporary plans are a good way for some people to avoid a lapse such as:

* Transitioning between jobs

* college students no longer eligible for their parents policy

* Those looking for an affordable COBRA alternative

* New Employees in their 30-60 day waiting period before group kicks in

* Those not eligible for Medicare, but no longer eligible for group insurance.
