BOCA RATON, Fla. – Health Insurance Now, a licensed health insurance brokerage, has expanded its guidance for Michigan residents who need temporary coverage. The company said job changers, students and early retirees are among those who may benefit from comparing options when a gap in coverage appears, and that each group tends to have different priorities when it comes to cost, networks and timing.
The situations differ. A worker changing employers may be waiting for new benefits to begin, a student may be leaving a family plan after graduation, and an early retiree may need a bridge before Medicare eligibility. Health Insurance Now says its agents help each applicant weigh cost, network and timing, and that the right plan for one group is not necessarily the right plan for another, even when the coverage dates look similar on paper.
“People in Michigan ask us the same question in different forms: what can I have in place quickly, and what will it cost?” said Matthew Sechter, CEO of Health Insurance Now. “With short term health insurance in Michigan, the answer depends on the person, which is why we start with a conversation and not with a price list.”
Agents use the company’s proprietary software to compare temporary plans from multiple national carriers. Quotes are typically available in minutes, according to the company, and coverage can often begin within 24 to 48 hours of approval. Plan features, pricing, eligibility and availability vary by state and individual, and the company encourages residents to read plan terms carefully, including any limits on what the plan will pay for.
The company notes that some plans exclude pre-existing conditions. “We would rather an applicant know the limits today than find them later,” Sechter said. “A temporary plan is a tool for a specific stretch of time, and we want people to use it that way. If someone needs more than a stopgap, we can talk through year-round options as well.”
Residents who expect a longer gap can ask about year-round private plans, which are not tied to the government enrollment calendar. The brokerage handles enrollment paperwork, and agents remain available after enrollment to answer questions as an applicant’s situation changes.
