Although the above provides a good description of the important features of the Short Term Medical plan, this is not the insurance contract and only
the actual contract defines coverage. Exclusions may vary by state and by the terms of the insurance contract. The policy itself sets forth in detail the rights and obligations of both you
and the insurance company.
