Hawaii short-term health insurance were created specifically for those individuals or families experiencing only a temporary loss of health insurance. If you are not certain that your uninsured state will be temporary, short-term health insurance is not for you. Short-term health insurance plans tend to run between 1-6 months.
Most short-term health insurance plans will provide a baseline of medical services to cover unexpected illness or accidental injuries. Short-term health insurance plans will not cover costs associated with routine health care, preventive health care and immunizations or dental and eye care. Moreover, short-term health insurance plans provide health insurance coverage for a limited time frame and once that period has passed, it may be difficult to purchase additional, permanent health insurance plans depending on the condition of your health.
