Short-term health insurance policies continue to increase in demand even though they don’t include benefits such as prescription drugs or maternity coverage, can reject applicants based on their medical history, according to a report from The New York Times.

Purchasers of these temporary policies are usually filling a coverage gap and need a basic policy to cover an emergency without the higher costs of regular health policies.
