Maximum Coverage Period
You decide the length of coverage of your BC Life & Health
Short-Term PPO Plan, from a minimum of 30 to a maximum of 185 days. This
policy is non-renewable and designed to meet your health plan needs
while you are between other coverage. After your Short Term PPO Plan
expires, you may complete a new application and reapply for a new plan.
However, after you have had two elections of a BC Life & Health
Short-Term Plan with less than a six month lapse between, you must wait
six months before you reapply for short term coverage.
