Q: How do I renew a short term
medical insurance policy that expires December 31? This policy was much
cheaper than others so I want to keep it as long as I can.
A: Simply go online at
www.FreedomBenefits.net to take out a new policy since these policies
cannot be changed after they are issued. Short term medical insurance
policies are generally available in lengths of one month or longer and
some policies can be renewed up to a maximum of three years before it
is necessary to apply for a new policy. You can lock in a lower rate by
requesting a new policy date of December rather than January 1 since
rates will be higher next year.
