Pivot Health by HealthCare.com, a leader in technology-enabled
health insurance solutions, announced it has partnered with
Pan-American Life Insurance Company (PALIC) to market short-term
medical (STM) insurance in more than 25 states.
“Pivot Health has been a market leader in the short-term medical
insurance space since 2016. Our experienced team is eager to expand
Pivot’s product portfolio with Pan-American because of its unique
positioning that captures the primary needs consumers and insurance
brokers are asking for when seeking an insurance solution while
between major medical health insurance policies,” said Deirdre
Ragan, President of Pivot Health. “A short-term policy from
Pan-American policies will give Pivot Health access to unlimited
doctor office visits, zero copays for hospitalization, waived
deductible requirements for routine screenings, and more. Pivot
Health is now poised to offer multiple STM insurance solutions from
various carriers no matter what the healthcare landscape looks like
in the coming years.”
Short-term medical insurance is a temporary solution for
individuals who have missed the open enrollment period, are in an
employer waiting period, are aging off a parent’s health insurance
plan, an early retiree without access to Medicare, and other life
situations that inhibit an individual from getting primary medical
health insurance coverage. Pivot Health short-term medical plans
also offer free telemedicine visits and Point Health advocacy
services to help policyholders find doctors or facilities in their
local area, set timely appointments, and know healthcare pricing
for services before an initial visit or treatment begins.
“This partnership with the short-term medical specialists at
Pivot Health is a significant milestone for Pan-American Accident
& Health,” said J.J. Lafleur, Vice President U.S. Group,
Pan-American Life. “Pivot Health’s unmatched digital channels
facilitate the immediate expansion of our diverse offering of
short-term medical insurance plans, designed to address the unique
needs of individual and family healthcare expenses in today’s
landscape.”
