It is designed to help individuals and families who don't have access to affordable employer-sponsored coverage or qualify for public programs like Medicaid or Medicare. Marketplace plans provide comprehensive coverage that includes essential health benefits, such as preventive care, prescription drugs, and hospitalization. They also offer financial assistance based on income to make the coverage more affordable.

These plans can be similar to Marketplace plans regarding coverage and benefits, but they are not eligible for the financial assistance available through the Marketplace.

They provide flexibility in choosing specific insurance companies and plans that meet individual needs.

Short-term insurance, as the name suggests, is temporary health insurance coverage that typically lasts for a limited period, up to 90 days. These plans are designed to bridge gaps in coverage, such as when someone is between jobs or waiting for other health insurance coverage to begin. Short-term Plans often have lower premiums but may have more limited benefits than Marketplace or off-exchange plans. They typically do not cover pre-existing conditions or offer the same level of comprehensive coverage. Short-term insurance can be a cost-effective option for individuals who need temporary coverage. Still, it's essential to understand the limitations and ensure that it aligns with specific healthcare needs.
