If you obtain a available job that have form insurance knowing that you call for surgery, will the strength insurance cover?

My father is self employed. He was in discussions with a company to become an employee when he found out he wants heart bypass surgery. He currently pays for his own insurance, but the coverage is only 70%. His out of pocket expense will be in the tens of thousands. If he take the job will the insurance cover the surgery? Please only answer if you know.
Answers:
Assuming he's have his coverage for at least 12 months, and hasn't had a lapse surrounded by coverage more than 63 days, then yes, the new employer's policy should cover the surgery, up to the edges, in accordance with the policy lingo.

If you're asking, is it 60% or 80%, well, no one here have ANY way of knowing. Source(s): agent, 21+ years
He will call for to indicate that he has this preexisting condition which depending on the insurance co will either imply they will flat out refuse to insure him or charge him an exhorbitant premium since he is a risk to cost them money with the condition. Also, depending on the insurance company will determine how long he will call for to be covered before they actually payment for surgeries. Perhaps he should call this particular company and ask them what their policies are to see if it is worthwhile to switch, it's reasonably possible that it could be more costly to change companies since he needs surgery.

Let's frontage it all insurance co's are just out for money, they couldn't thinking less about the actual condition of the people who pay them.
Not if they found out that the condition was pre-existing. That's pretty standard.
Some plans do cover pre existing conditions - but as companies try to reduce their expenses this is becoming smaller amount common.
Under HIPPA law, a group insurance may impose a pre-existing exclusionary period (up to 12 months) for any alien employee that enrolls on the insurance as soon as he is eligible. However, some group insurance do not exclude for pre-existing, so your father needs to find out if his latest employer will and when his coverage will be effective. There is usually a waiting period of 60-90 days (usually the probabtionary period).

If the insurance does hold a exclusionary period of 12 months, the amount of time he had his individual insurance could count toward this exclusionary time. So if he had his individual coverage for 12 months, the exclusionary period would be met. HOWEVER, here can not be a break of more than 63 days between coverages.

Hopefully, your father can wait until his group insurance is in effect.

Good luck! Source(s): http://www.dol.gov/ebsa/faqs/faq_consume…
