Whenever you have a break in coverage, you are at risk. It is never advisable to be without medical insurance coverage; you can't possibly predict when an accident or illness may occur.

Some of the reasons people may experience a period of time in which they find themselves without coverage could be: 

• Waiting for Permanent Coverage with a New Employer
• In-between Jobs
• A student on Break
• Traveling
• Finishing College
• Coming off Your Parents Plan
  
  

It's times like this that you have a temporary need for health insurance coverage.
