It depends on a few things. If your primary insurance is say less than 2 years old, they can deny claims to determine whether the condition is pre-existing. If you have had the secondary policy longer/ or the pre-x period has already been satisfied, then they may pay the claim as secondary. As long as the treatment is indicated as covered benefits in the policy. These cases are common when both spouses have covered each other on their jobs. And/or when a child is covered under both parents policies. There could be a coordination of coverage issue with the latter.
