your options for health insurance coverage between now and the end of the year aren't good. you can look for a short-term policy by shopping on ehealthinsurance. com but i'm not sure that will offer you what you need. you should definitely shop for coverage for 2014 on your state's marketplace which you can do starting next tuesday. you'll be guaranteed coverage and you won't be charged more for any pre-existing health conditions but the coverage you buy this fall won't kick in until january 1 2014. in the meantime you might seek care through a community health clinic. charges are based on a sliding scale based on your income and the care can be quite comprehensive. you can find a clinic by searching the u. s. health resources and services administration website: www. findahealthcenter. hrsa. gov/search_hcc. aspx.
i have frequent doctor's appointments and am on several medications. where can i get affordable health care until 2014? . i am clinically depressed and a type 1 diabetic (i also am transgender but do not expect insurance to cover that). i have anywhere from 2-4 doctor appointments a month so i need insurance that will cover medications and visits.
