Moving from Europe to Bay Area but have a about a week between health coverage at old job in Europe and new job in CA and their health plan. Anybody looked into ways to get coverage for a period that short?
Try visitors coverage website . The Patriot and Patriot plus plans are good.
Thanks. Looks interesting. However, all these seem to be for people visiting with residence outside the US. We have already moved so technically I guess we aren’t visiting or traveling.
Lol a week? Just do what the millions of uninsured undocumented immigrants do and go to ER and don't pay.
Hey, don't say undocumented or illegal. They're just immigrants. It's racist to say anything negative about them. /S
Ehhh... I am neither undocumented or illegal. You too take your hate elsewhere.

Thanks but again, this is for visitors and not for people who have already moved.
Do you go the hospital every week? It'll be fine man. Also, just FYI: Often times health insurance doesn't kick in until the first day of the next month, so even if you start working eg tomorrow you might not be covered until Feb 1 But seriously it'll be fine

Travel insurance maybe?
Looked into it but I have already moved then. So I can’t get a travel insurance from Europe since I am not a resident anymore with an address there... and I can’t find any good health options in CA.
And even with that insurance I think you have to pay out of pocket and then get it reimbursed from the company. Just Google short term insurance and buy anything that looks decent. It's only a week so I wouldn't fret. Short term plans are only useful in case of emergencies mostly anyway.
