health insurance — short term
You talked about a one-year plan on the WGN Business lunch last Wednesday. Did I hear you correctly? Agile.com?

Yes, the website that specializes in these short-term health insurance policies is www.AgileHealthInsurance.com. But hurry and sign up by December 15th, so coverage can start in January. These are such an attractive idea -- for healthy people -- since the premiums are lower, that the government will start restricting them to only 90 days, instead of the current one-year plans. That means you would have to re-sign up every quarter! (And, of course, there is some medical "underwriting" for these policies, unlike Obamacare which must take even unhealthy people.) But if you buy a one-year policy now, you won't have to think about it again till next year at this time.
