Health Insurance: A Thoughtful Graduation Gift
Introduction
Instead of a traditional gift like a computer or a car, parents might want to consider giving recent college graduates something truly valuable?"health insurance.
The Coverage Gap
Many parents and new grads discover that health insurance plans often stop covering adult children once they graduate or reach a certain age, even if they still live at home. Graduates typically lose their coverage once they leave school or reduce their course load, leaving many without insurance until they secure a job.
The Statistics
According to a 2002 Census Bureau report, 18- to 24-year-olds are the least likely age group to have health insurance. This gap affects a significant number of young adults entering the workforce.
Temporary Solutions
An effective solution is temporary or short-term medical insurance, designed to bridge coverage gaps for periods typically ranging from one to six months, varying by state and provider.
For instance, Assurant Health offers plans that cover from 30 to 185 days. These short-term options are generally more affordable because they involve less risk for insurers.
Coverage Details
Temporary insurance mainly covers unexpected health issues and usually excludes preventive care, physicals, immunizations, dental, and eye care. Additionally, pre-existing conditions are generally not covered.
Wider Appeal
While these plans are ideal for graduates waiting for employer-sponsored insurance, they are also useful for people changing jobs, transitioning careers, or facing waiting periods for new employer plans.
By considering health insurance as a graduation gift, parents can offer practical support that bridges the gap to adulthood.
