For people who want some security in life without a health plan, signing up for a short term health insurance would be a good choice. Some of policies can provide up to around 5 million dollars worth of coverage.
Most of these short term health insurance last from 1 month to half a year, which then can be renewed up until 36 months. Signing up is easy and the policies could be issued as soon as the day after signing up. Credit card is the most common payment for insurers.
One thing to take note is that short term plans are not meant to cover conditions that exist before signing up. It only covers conditions that the investor would have from the day that he signed up until the period is over. There is a “look-back” period for said conditions, and they vary from state to state.
There are various people who are ideal for signing up for short term health insurance.
Their main purpose for signing up is to have coverage during the times that they have no health benefits. The most common of these are people that are currently jobless. Due to its cheaper nature compared to traditional coverage, this is what people without much money to spare go for to ensure their health needs.

This type of insurance also helps people who are still looking for a job until they find a company that offers a longer term health plan. Finally, there are also the people who finally reach the age limit and lose their dependent status from the health benefits of their parents.

Short term insurance
Question by dedicateddoby: If I get denied long term & short term insurance at work does that mean I will not qualify anywhere else?
I have had type 1 diabetes now for 16 years wilth no complications and have only been hospitalized once in 6 years and that was when I had my son!! I take good care of myself and only go to the doctor for my diabetes exams and for taking birth control. I have went for miscellaneous stuff like allergy problems, etc. For the most part I take care of myself. Was I denied long term & short insurance for the simple fact I have diabetes? Is that fair? I only wanted this insurance in case I got in some unforeseen illness or accident and couldn’t work because I have a 21 month old child to think of. I am on an insulin pump and the diabetes doctor tells me all the time how good I take care of myself. My primary care physician says the same. They were the two doctor’s numbers listed on the from I had to fill out. Will I always be denied?? If I ever get disabled and can’t work for a year will I be covered any other way. Can I get insurance somewhere else? Any suggestions??

keep on applying-give one doctor number out unless they want more(don’t give out to much information) tell them only what they want

Not at all.
When starting a new position, it was my understanding that you automatically qualify for both – it is only if you say no, then change your mind that they deny you.
Contact your states dept of social services to see what laws protect you. There are plenty of them out there. The problem usually lies in the people that broker insurance for your employers (the little known go-between that connects your employer to the insurance companies) It varies from state to state, but in general, the act that you describe is very much illegal-it is discrimination-and your employer or the insurance company do not know what is going on. It is VERY complicated, but take a few minutes to contact the state health dept. on this. It goes on too often and these middlemen/women get rich off of selecting who to insure.
