What can I do if my insurance company is rescinding my past health insurance coverage?
warmwardbound asked:
When I sent in my application for my health insurance, I forgot to note that I have obstructive sleep apnea. Stupid mistake, but I hadn’t had insurance since I was 20 years old and paid of my OSA treatments out of pocket nearly two years ago. I had an expensive hospital bill in September for a completely unrelated illness. When my insurer pulled my medical history, they saw the OSA and sent a letter with reimbursement for premiums and said that my coverage was null and void. I feel that they should cover the bill since the illness was unrelated.
Also, I’ve began working for a company that offers group insurance through the same insurer that rescinded my policy! I didn’t even have a lapse of coverage. I didn’t purposefully omit the OSA.
