Blue Short-Term SM health plans

Short-term coverage that’s long on benefits
 
Change is a part of life. And sometimes it can affect your health insurance. Like when you’re starting a new job and your health coverage hasn’t kicked in yet, or you’re a recent college graduate. For times like these, a Blue Short-Term PPO plan can help fill the gap.  
 
No matter how healthy you are, or how well you take care of yourself, an unexpected illness or injury is a possibility. With a Blue Short-Term plan, you won’t have to risk getting caught without healthcare.  
 
These convenient plans let you:
Protect your health and finances with traditional health coverage on a short-term basis
Get coverage for as little as 30 days to a maximum of 180 days
Choose from a wide range of annual deductibles from $250 to $2,500
Begin coverage on any day of the month
 
You even have a choice of payment options! Just keep in mind that, because this policy offers coverage for a limited period of time, past or present health conditions are not covered.
