Indiana short-term health insurance plans give people the ability to purchase health insurance coverage on an interim basis while waiting for permanent, comprehensive health insurance coverage to go into effect. As such, short-term health insurance plans should never be used in place of standard health insurance plans. Only if you expect to receive permanent health insurance in the imminent future should you consider purchasing a short-term health insurance plan.
Indiana short-term health insurance plans are accident-only policies. 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.
