For a senior citizen, being uninsured is incredibly dangerous and fiscally irresponsible; however, being accepted into the United States Medicare program can be tricky. GICI Insurance Agency can offer the temporary Bridge Major Medical Insurance Plan to cover senior citizens in the transition period between traditional insurance and Medicare.
Medicare applicants who have just become US citizens must live in the US for five years as legal residents before they are accepted into the program. Others may miss their application date and have to wait an extra 18 months before obtaining full medical insurance. The Bridge Plan is a temporary major medical insurance plan intended for use by seniors awaiting acceptance in the U.S. Medicare system. This “waiting period” plan is now renewable for up to five years.
With this plan your senior citizen clients will be reassured by the fact that they can go to any doctor and any hospital. This temporary plan comes in two parts. One covers hospitalization, hospice, nursing, and home health care; the other covers the costs of physicians and surgeons, ambulances and other medical needs. Your senior citizen clients can chose to be covered by either option or both!
With Bridge Major Medical Insurance Plan, you can keep your senior clients safe from financial ruin should anything happen to them while they wait to be accepted into the US Medicare system.
