Rejected for a Job at the Container Store

Here's some links:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Income_protection_insurance https://www.pps.co.za/pages/faq/INCAPACITY.php

A government one, even though you pay for it: http://www.sars.gov.za/TaxTypes/UIF/Pages/default.aspx

Apparently, the US has it as well, though I'm not sure how equivalent to the above it is: http://www.dol.gov/dol/topic/unemployment-insurance/

Thanks for the links! I'm in the US and, as far as I know, we don't have anything like the policy discussed in your wikipedia link. Unemployment insurance is a good thing (and I'm curious why it didn't show up at all in the original article) but it doesn't help much with the health insurance issue.

Great! Thanks for the link. Looks like a very nice service, and I'm glad to know it exists. I was pleasantly surprised how affordable it seems to be.
