Pregnancy - Health Ins Coverage Posted: 10-12-06 16:33pm
Hi, my wife was on group health plan for 8
mnths through her employer, and her
insurance coverage ended last week when
she quit the job last week. She is
currently pregnant (2 and half months).
She went to india immediately after
quitting the job. She will be back in usa
in feb 2007, and her due date is in 1'st
week of may 2007. I want to add her in my
group plan through my employer when she
comes back in feb 2007. If her coverage
starts again from march 1, 2007, is
delivering the baby in 1'st week of may
2007 fully covered? She will not be
having any coverage between oct 06 – feb
07, and she will be in india during that
time. Is this lapse in coverage ok? Is
there any pre-existing condition rules
apply to her pregnancy? Will delivering
the baby in 1'st week of may 2007 fully
covered? Please kindly help me with this
situation.
