What is Short-Term Security?
Our short-term security insurance plans are a great option for individuals and families who are temporarily without healthcare coverage. You can choose the deductible option that best fits your budget for a maximum of 364 days of coverage each year with the option to cancel at any time without a penalty. These Short-Term products are only applicable to a select group of people, are still subject to underwriting and therefore are not guarantee issued. According to the ACA, individuals who are enrolled in a short-term security product plan effective January 1, 2014 may be subject to a minimum penalty of $95 for 2014.
What is Medicare Supplement?
Medicare plans are designed for individuals age 65 years and older and for disabled Medicare beneficiaries. A Medicare supplement, also known as Medigap insurance, can help pay some of the health care costs that Medicare Part A and B doesn't cover, like copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles. You pay a monthly premium for this coverage in addition to the monthly Part B premium that you pay to Medicare.
