This depends on whether or not your new employer will be providing you with coverage. If the new employer will provide you with group coverage, then you will have an exclusion for 1 full year from the effective date of the new coverage. During this first year, you will have limited coverage for the pre-existing condition. After 1 year, the pre-existing condition will be covered at 100%.

If your new employer is not providing you with a group plan than you will need to obtain individual coverage. Individual Disability coverage is fully underwritten and will likely exclude any pre-existing conditions. If the condition is severe enough, you may even be declined coverage.

No, provided there has been no treatment or care or symptoms during the look back period. In order for it to be considered a pre-existing medical condition it must fit the specific definition found in the policy and usually that requires care, treatment, or symptoms during the look back period to be considered pre-existing.

Can A payer can cancel a patient policy or deny payment on a claim if the patient failed to disclose a preexisting condition?

Under federal health reform rules, an insurer can cancel a policy only for fraud on the application. Omitting a pre-existing condition might be considered fraud, especially if the condition is significant. The insurer could choose to continue the policy, but would have the right to deny claims for the pre-existing condition. If you had a 63-day gap in coverage, for example, the insurer could deny those claims for the first 12 months. After the 12 months ends, the insurer would have to start paying claims for all of your medical conditions.


How do you prove a non-preexisting condition?
