New policys are affordable but with HEP C in my past, & even with no other illness, and being told treatment as a success and cured...
Dear Paula526,
Depending on where you live, there are plenty of affordable private individual health insurance plans that you can apply for. Just keep in mind that private individual health insurance is “underwritten” in most states & not guaranteed issue. That means whether or not the carrier issues a policy will depend upon the applicant’s health history. I am not saying every simple flu or cold can get you declined, but I am saying that it is considered during the underwriting process.
Depending on what you consider affordable, privately purchased health insurance is available to qualifying applicants. Qualification is determined through the process of underwriting in which your current state of health will be decisive for the approval of your application. To most traditional health insurance carriers being tested, treated, examined, consulted with, received advice on or had symptoms of a condition could be construed as Pre-existing Condition.
I didnt see anything like that on the lab results. The blood test was done as an underwriting process for life insurance, which of course was denied. I tested positive for the HBsAG and HBeAG though. So should i request a test that includes that? Is that the more significant indication of liver damage?
Thank you for your help!
Like someone else said , the ONLY way to know how your insurance works and what is covered is to call your insurance and ask about your specific policy. I worked for a major health insurance company for years and the biggest mistake you can make is not calling them in advance. I also recommend finding out what options you have for permanent coverage for your baby.
Hi, I just found out I do not have health insurance. We thought it would be until the end of the month but it's already done. I wad still under my moms plan and she was laid off last month. Well I had medical assistance through the state my last pregnancy but they dropped me when she was a month old because of my fiance's income. My daughter still has medical assistance.
Hi, I was wondering if anybody could help me with a health insurance question? About a year ago Anthem Covered two separate visits to the doctors office that I had gone to. So initially they paid and I thought I was all set. Now, almost a year later, they retracted payment due to my coverage ending within days of the visits. I understand if I wasn't covered, but I am wondering how they can pay for it and then decide they were wrong and bill me a year later?
Hi Frrecks,
I'm sorry that I don't know anything about the insurance, since we still have private insurance. It has to be so difficult to set aside the financial worries and concentrate on feeling better. I do know a lot of the DMD companies have programs to assist anyone without insurance.
As for my private insurance cost, my employer just finished the open enrollment for next year and here is what I will be paying for my health insurance - $238.00 a month for me and my spouse.
