When does insurance start? When does it end?
Insurance starts the day you start your assignment. Conversely, insurance ends when you end your assignment. If your next assignment starts within two weeks of the previous one ending, then there will be no interruption of your plan.
Our goal, is always to have you employed and have you covered! If you do take a break between assignments, the employee portion would be recouped on the new assignment at the beginning.
Keep in mind, if there is a lapse, then we always have day one insurance once you start your subsequent assignment.
