| Strategic Health Insurance Consultants Tip 6: Consider Short-Term or Catastrophic Plans - If you need temporary coverage due to job loss or waiting for employer benefits, short-term health insurance might be a good option. These plans offer lower premiums but limited coverage and do not cover pre-existing conditions.
