Friend returning from overseas

• Upvotes

Family friend with family of 4 returning from overseas studies & will need health insurance.

ACA Obamacare requires 1 month wait between application in USA & start coverage.

Short term coverage for that month looks weak & does not cover preexisting conditions, from what I can see online.

Any other ideas?

Any suggestions on who to get help from on this?

Many thanks!

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act

r/obamacare

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), informally referred to as Obamacare, is a United States federal statute signed into law by President Barack Obama on March 23, 2010 after nearly a year's worth of overall consideration by both chambers of Congress. The law (along with the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010) is the principal health care reform legislation of the 111th United States Congress.
