Multi-Carrier Package

The only 12-month short-term medical solution

Individual short-term medical plans are limited to about four months at a time. Our Multi-Carrier Package is the only way to secure a full year of coverage, with three consecutive 4-month plans back to back, enrolled in a single application.

When one 4-month term ends, your coverage continues seamlessly into the next carrier’s plan. You pay one average monthly premium today and complete one checkout, and Pivot handles the transitions between all three terms.
