BOCA RATON, Fla. – Travel nurses move from one contract to the next, and their health coverage does not always move with them. Health Insurance Now, a licensed health insurance brokerage, said it helps assignment-based healthcare workers compare private plans that offer PPO networks with nationwide access, so a change of assignment does not have to mean a scramble for coverage.
Gaps can open between assignments, and employer benefits tied to a single facility may end when a contract does. Health Insurance Now says private plans are available year-round and are not tied to the government enrollment calendar, so a nurse can look for coverage when a contract ends rather than waiting for a set window. The company adds that nationwide network access may be especially relevant for clinicians who may be treated in different states from one assignment to the next.
“Travel nurses go where the need is, and their coverage should be able to follow,” said Matthew Sechter, CEO of Health Insurance Now. “We look for private health insurance for travel nurses that works across state lines, and we talk through what happens to the plan when the next contract starts.”
The company’s licensed agents compare plans from more than 25 national carriers using proprietary matching software. Quotes are typically available in minutes, and coverage can often begin within 24 to 48 hours of approval. Plan availability, eligibility and pricing vary by state, plan and individual, and some plans exclude pre-existing conditions, so agents review plan details with each applicant before enrollment.
“Between contracts, a nurse’s time is short,” Sechter said. “One call to compare plans and a brokerage that handles the paperwork can make that transition simpler. Healthcare workers spend their days looking after other people, and we want to take one task off their own list.”
Agents remain available after enrollment to answer questions, the company said, which can be useful when a nurse is relocating to a new assignment and needs to confirm how the plan works in a different part of the country.
