Q: Do you have any coverage for a single unmarried female, 22 yrs old. It is for my daughter, she is in excellent health & a full time student. She would need coverage for 2 years, but if we had to do it 6 mos. at a time that would be fine.

A: This sounds straight-forward; did you see the "Secure STM" or "American Health Shield" at FreedomBenefits.net? Both are reliable health insurance policies that offer online pricing and enrollment. At her age, the premium cost will be very reasonable. The American Health Shield is least expensive and therefore the most popular choice, but the Secure STM offers a renewable version that can last up to 36 months.
