For those of you whose child loses your coverage because he or she graduates from college and who does not have coverage through employment, Fortis offers short-term (6 months) coverage at a very reasonable rate. For six months our son's coverage was only $75/month and it was good coverage. Thankfully, he didn't need to use it but it was reassuring to know he had it that summer as he rode his bicycle coast-to-coast on a Habitat-for Humanity fundraiser!  Luckily, in October he then got a job in NYC with good coverage.
