What is the Free Look Period in Health Insurance?

by | Dec 3, 2024

Health Insurance for a Test Ride?

Health insurance is a big purchase, and as is the case with most big purchases, understanding exactly what it is that you’ve purchased is important. To help customers avoid buyer’s remorse, health insurance policies are required to offer a free-look period. If at any time during this period you find that you’re dissatisfied with your policy, you can cancel it and get your money back.

What is the Free Look Period in Health Insurance?

When Is the Free-Look Period Available?

In most cases, full health insurance coverage is an annual contract, and policyholders renew their contract every year. Free-look is only applicable to the first time you purchase that policy and is not available after you renew an existing policy. It kicks in when you receive your policy documents, ensuring that you have ample time to review everything and ensure that the policy you’ve chosen will meet your needs. Most are 10 days to review your policy for satisfaction.

It’s important to note that the free-look requirement is only applicable on health insurance policies that have terms of at least 3 years. Shorter-duration plans that are given for less than a year are not subject to the free-look rule. All ACA plans do have the free look period, with or without a government subsidy.

What Are Association Health Insurance Plans?

Most people have never heard of association health plans; however, these health insurance plans have been around for decades. Association Health Plans may have fewer benefits but will most likely have lower premiums, making them an attractive option for those who are young, healthy, and on a budget.

HRA vs Employer Sponsored Health Insurance

An employer-subsidized plan is a sensible option for employees. Not only does the employer pay at least 50% of the employee’s premium, but the remaining premium is tax-free and taken directly from the employee’s pay.

Saving Money on Health Insurance With Negotiated Pricing

The majority of health insurance companies have a contract with a network of hospitals and other providers. In this contract, there are negotiated rates for different services. This negotiated rate is generally lower and sometimes significantly lower than what a provider would charge someone who is paying out of pocket.
