Medical insurance?

Question

i am currently working but i dont get medical insurance till im here for one year is there any other way i can get some kind of medical insurance out of my job like some kind of government help if i need any.

Answer 1

Well, you can buy your own policy, through a local, independent agent.

Just because something isn't provided for you, doesn't mean the government provides!  You can actually provide for yourself!!

Answer 2

You could apply for a short-term temporary insurance policy.  these are available from Blue Cross, Humana, Assurant.  Just check their websites.  

Since you know you will be going on a group policy in a year, this would be an economical choice.  Short term policies are cheaper because when the term is over it is over whether you are in the middle of a claim or not.  But if you are getting picked up by a group policy the short term would be credible coverage and the new insurance would start paying the claim.

Answer 3

Maybe you could apply for some type of public aid.

Answer 4

No - you might check on getting an individual policy for that year.  Its not cheap by better than getting caught uninsured with major medical expenses.
