What Is Short-Term Health Insurance Used For?

The Flex Term health insurance plan can help you with basic medical coverage during a gap in insurance coverage.

Premiums for these plans are quite affordable, though they provide fewer “essential health benefits” than comprehensive ACA health plans. Most of these plans last up to 12 months, but you may cancel at any time without penalties.

  • Pre-existing conditions are not covered
  • Dental and eye care are not covered
  • Prescriptions (unless prescribed during a covered hospitalization) are not covered
