Who can benefit from short term health insurance?

You start your own business and no longer have group coverage. You’re between jobs and COBRA coverage doesn’t fit your budget. You’ve retired early and need coverage until Medicare starts. There are times when a budget-friendly bridge through a gap in health coverage is needed. If you’re in one of those times, that’s when a short term medical plan may be able to help.

Short Term FAQs

What is Short Term Health Insurance?
Short term health insurance plans provide fast and flexible health coverage for a temporary time. See short-term plan options and apply today.
Is a Short Term Plan the right health insurance choice for me?

Short Term or Temporary health insurance plans may make sense if you are:

  • Rolling off your parent’s insurance
  • In between jobs
  • Without health insurance, have missed Open Enrollment and do not have a qualifying event for Special Enrollment
  • Waiting for your Affordable Care Act (ACA) coverage to begin
  • Waiting for benefits to begin at a new job
  • Waiting for Medicare
  • Needing a temporary alternative to COBRA insurance
  • Losing coverage following a divorce
  • Under 65 and in good health

In these situations and others where you find yourself temporarily lacking health care coverage, choosing a Short-Term health insurance plan may be just the security you need to get you to that next stage of your life.

How soon can I get covered?

As early as the next day after you apply in many cases.

Do I need to buy short term or temporary health insurance during a certain enrollment period?

No. You can apply for Short Term or Temporary health insurance at any time. This is different from Affordable Care Act (ACA) coverage, also known as Obamacare, which you can buy only during Open Enrollment each year or during a qualified Special Enrollment time.

Do Short Term Insurance Plans meet Affordable Care Act (ACA) requirements?

No. Short Term plans are not ACA, or Obamacare, health plans. While both ACA and Short Term health insurance plans cover major health events in your life, there are important differences.

ACA health plans are guaranteed issue, meaning you cannot be denied coverage based on preexisting conditions. Also, ACA health plans are required to cover 10 essential health benefits:

  1. Doctor visits for illness and injury and other outpatient care (ambulatory services)
  2. Emergency services
  3. Hospitalization
  4. Maternity and newborn care
  5. Mental health and substance use disorder services
  6. Prescription drug coverage
  7. Rehabilitative and habilitative services and devices (relearning to walk after a stroke and improving ability to speak without an impediment)
  8. Laboratory tests and services
  9. Preventive and wellness care
  10. Pediatric services (including both oral care and vision care)
In contrast, Short Term health insurance is not required to cover all of these benefits, so plans can vary in what they cover. Also, Short-Term insurance plans typically do not cover preexisting medical conditions. You must apply and answer a series of medical questions to determine your eligibility for these plans.
Can I cover my family with Short Term Insurance?
Yes, in many cases, you can cover spouses and dependents with Short Term insurance. Note: State variations do apply. In some states, you may not be able to include spouses and dependents. And in states where you can cover them, all family members will be subject to the same series of medical questions to determine if they are eligible for the plan.
Can I avoid Federal ACA Tax Penalties with a Short Term Health Insurance Plan?

Short-Term health insurance is not “minimum essential coverage” as defined by the ACA. As of January 1, 2019, there is no federal tax penalty for not having minimum essential coverage.

However, tax penalties may still vary at the state level. Consult your tax advisor for more information.
