Short Term Medical
What happens to your health
coverage while you're in-between
jobs, become a seasonal or
temporary employee, or are
waiting for your new employer
sponsored plan to kick in? AFBA
has teamed-up with Fortis
Insurance Company to offer
short-term medical plans that
provide coverage when there is a
gap in regular coverage. Going
without health coverage, even if
for a short period of time, can
be a gamble; and not only
because of your health, but it
can also cause a financial
strain. An illness or health
emergency can happen at any time
and a short-term medical plan
can be the coverage you
need.
What is Short Term Medical?
- Affordable short-term health plans that provide coverage while you are in-between jobs, waiting for new employer coverage to start, or a seasonal or temporary employee.
