What is Short-Term Health/Medical Insurance?

Short term medical insurance (STM) is major medical coverage that is purchased for a limited time, typically 6 months to 1 year. It is STOP-GAP Coverage. At the end of the time frame, the policy terminates; therefore, it is NOT a good long-term solution. However, it's great for anyone who needs insurance for less than 1 year. It is 'GAP' insurance between policies so that your health insurance coverage won't STOP.
