Although this summary provides a good description of the important features of the short term medical insurance coverage, it is not the insurance contract and only the actual contract defines coverage.

Exclusions may vary by state and by the terms of the insurance contract. The temporary insurance policy itself sets forth in detail both your rights and obligations and ours.
