National General Short Term Insurance Guide

Our Rating: ★★★★★

National General is an insurance company probably better known for their auto insurance. What most people don’t know is that they also offer some of the best “short term” or “catastrophic” health insurance on the market.

The bottom line: Because National General offers longer term options, a national network PPO, competitive lifetime limits,  a $50 urgent care copay AND a guaranteed issue option (in most states), National General is a stand-out insurance provider in a crowded field of competitors. Few short term or catastrophic plans are able to offer these level of benefits at an affordable price.

What’s Covered?

Short Term Medical insurance, as its name implies, isn’t meant to be a long-term solution. While it covers some medical expenses, it doesn’t cover everything. Make sure you take a look at what you need your health insurance to do for you and compare it to the benefits provided through Short Term Medical.
