A client came to me last spring with a $47,000 hospital bill.
She thought she had health insurance. She'd been paying premiums every month.
What she had was a short-term health plan.
Here's what those plans typically don't cover:
→ Pre-existing conditions
→ Prescription drugs
→ Mental health
→ Maternity care
→ Preventive screenings
They're legal. They're called health insurance. And a hospital stay on one can still leave you with debt most people never recover from.
She wasn't careless. Someone sold her the plan and called it comprehensive.
If you're not sure what type of plan you have, or something feels off about your coverage, DM me 'PLAN REVIEW' and I'll take a look at no charge.
