Q:
I am a U.S. citizen returning to the U.S. and need health insurance until my new employer's health insurance starts. It seems like I do not qualify for any of the plans?
A:
There is one policy specifically designed for this situation. Please use only the "Inbound Immigrant Short Term Medical" plan at www.MedSave.com that must be downloaded and printed. The application can be returned by e-mail, fax or regular mail but online enrollment is not available because of the limited demand for this product.
