Guest guest Posted May 31, 1998 Report Share Posted May 31, 1998 I just received my newletter from Mothers of Ashtmatics. They have a notice regarding health plan experiences. " The Patient Advocacy Team (PAT) of the American Medical Association's Health Law Division is asking for information concerning any recent problems or good experiences people have had with health plans. " " PAT hears from patients and physicians regarding plans that sometimes deny necessary treatment, refuse to pay for promised care, or reject payment for phycisian-perscribed medications if such medications are not formally included in the plan " " Please call Evamarie Norey at (312)464-4835 or send e-mail information to Evamarie_Norey@... with your stories, thoughts or comments.

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 Almost any insurance will accept him. But, you will probally have to have it for about a year before they will cover his mito related problems. It is called the Pre-Existing clause. We recently switched and we have a period of time where they will cover any new problems but not anything she has been already seen for. They do, however, pay for her prescriptions no matter if it is a new one or not. We have Anthem Blue Cross Blue Sheild PPO.

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 I thought because of the new Hippa law that they can not deny coverage anymore for pre-existing conditions. If your concerned about switching insurance I would look into the rules of Hippa. Geri-Anne and Wyatt, Complex I > Almost any insurance will accept him.
