From expensive but extensive policies to cheap and inadequate coverage plans, insurance companies make it certain that they don't discriminate. One option many insurers provide is short term insurance, coverage that protects you much like a standard policy would but only for a short period of time. You are able to protect yourself from financial loss the same way you would with any standard length policy.

To find the most affordable short term insurance rates, jump online and start comparing insurance quotes from a number of different companies.

So what's the need for short term insurance? A quality policy can be beneficial in each insurance category:

1. Auto insurance. If you are taking a trip with a friend who will be driving your vehicle, or if you find yourself driving someone else's vehicle for a short period of time, it is your answer. An accident can occur anywhere at anytime, so you will want coverage even if you are driving uninsured for a day.

2. Home insurance. In a situation where you find yourself moving and have a lapse between the time your old policy expires and the new one begins, it is the way to go.

3. Health insurance. Because it's considered a privilege and not a right, health insurance can get a bit pricey. It is very important to own, however, so make sure you do everything in your power to obtain it. If you are in between jobs or are a recent college graduate transitioning from a dependent status on your parents' policy into a policy of your own, short term health insurance might be a wise investment.
