Short-term insurance (WAS question about contracting w/o agencies)
Subject:Short-term insurance (WAS question about contracting w/o agencies) From:AmyD -at- osas -dot- com To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 4 Jun 2002 7:50:4
Sorry about the late reply - I'm on digest and get behind quickly, but I
thought this was important enough to share with everyone. Anon asked about
finding insurance as s/he's contemplating taking a six month contract which
may turn permanent. If it's just short-term health insurance you're looking
for, American Family offers an inexpensive short-term insurance option that
may fit the bill. The longest term they offer is six months and it's
non-renewable, but it's made for people who need short-term health
insurance for whatever reason.
For more details, check it out at http://www.amfam.com/options/health/othheal.asp. There's some details
there, but you may need to locate and contact an AmFam agent for more
information. I purchased this insurance myself last January when we were
relocating, and it's really affordable - much better than COBRA! However,
we never had need to see a doctor in that time, so I can't comment on the
services they offer. However, it is a good option for short-term insurance
if you need it.
