Christianmom Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 I was wondering if anyone has changed insurance companies in order to get IVIG or PEX covered for their child. If you did, were they OK about a pre-existing condition, or did you have to wait a few months. And were you able to change insurance companies just for your child, and keep you and the rest of your family on your current policy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amyjoy Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 I think that with the recent health care bill, insurance companies cannot deny coverage for children with pre-existing conditions. Adults, well, that's a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyD Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Yes, we switched from BCBS, which would not cover IVIg, to Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, which does cover it. In MA we have no pre-existing conditions for either children or adults so this was not an issue. So glad we switched! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
