Short-term plans in New Hampshire

Looking for short-term health insurance in New Hampshire? Here is how this coverage lane works specifically for New Hampshire residents, what it costs, and how to get it.

Short-term health plans are available to New Hampshire residents as a temporary bridge — between jobs, after aging off a parent's plan, or while waiting for other coverage to begin.

These plans have low premiums but can deny pre-existing conditions, skip essential benefits, and impose caps. They are not ACA-compliant and not subsidy-eligible. State rules affect how long short-term plans can last in New Hampshire.

Treat a short-term plan as a stopgap, not a replacement for comprehensive coverage — especially if you have ongoing health needs.
