Q: On your webpage you discuss
the difficulties in finding short term health care in New York. I have
also found that difficult and am looking for any available help. Are
there any companies that offer short term health care in New York?
A: The laws of the state of New
York do not allow the low cost insurance that is used in 48 other
states as a temporary bridge between employer plans or other long term
coverage. This simply means that you need to enroll in a regular plan
and then cancel it in a month or two when you no longer need it. The
least expensive and easiest health insurance in New York are the
supplemental plans like Value Health Insurance. These are very
inexpensive and easy to qualify for but offer the least amount of
protection
