Add any of these to your Short-term Medical Plan
Telemedicine 
For just a few dollars a month, you can add Telemedicine benefits that let you see a doctor from wherever you are. Teladoc™ lets you call or video conference with a board-certified doctor who can help resolve your health issues and even send a prescription to your local pharmacy, if needed.* Telemedicine includes even more ways to care for you and your family with these supplemental benefits:
- Best Health helps you make healthy lifestyle choices regarding exercise and diet through online recipes and nutrition and fitness videos.
- Innovative Medical Risk Management, Inc. advocates on your behalf in the event of large out-of-pocket expenses associated with high-deductible health plans, out-of-network charges or expensive prescription drugs.
Metal Gap 2
With a medical plan such as short-term medical, you could still be responsible for deductible and coinsurance expenses in the case of a serious accident or illness. With Metal Gap 2 coverage, you’ll receive benefits for covered events such as:
- Accident medical expenses
- Accidental death and dismemberment
- Critical illness
- Inpatient and outpatient surgery
These benefits allow you to focus on getting better instead of worrying about medical bills. Metal Gap 2 provides you with the financial protection you need while recovering—and your acceptance is guaranteed.

Plus, you’ll have access to more than 55,000 pharmacies across the country. ** Acceptance into the program is automatic—there’s no underwriting or health questions.
