Overall, short-term health insurance provides cost-effective and quickly accessible coverage, but it's important to consider the limitations, renewal restrictions, and potential gaps in coverage before making a decision.
*** Please Note: Short Term health insurance plans are not qualified under the Affordable Care Act. They do not include new benefits, rights, and protections under the ACA, and are not considered minimum essential coverage. Short-term health insurance plans are limited in duration, and you will stop receiving benefits when the plan expires. Plan duration and whether you can renew or buy a new plan after plan expiration depends on the plan you choose and the laws in your state. If you are accepted for an additional term under a short-term health insurance plan, the plan's deductible and other amounts reset so that amounts paid (or the satisfaction of conditions) under the initial plan are ignored. Similarly, whether you have pre-existing conditions will generally be determined anew as of your approval under the new application.
