Q:What are meant by pre existing conditions? Do you have a list of what is meant by that. For say, I don't have any Diabetes, Blood Pressure, Thyroid nor any Kidney, heart or other ailments.

It shouldn't be a case where I get enrolled into the plan and the insurer reject my claim towards some illness in the future that this ailment falls under pre-existing. Please clarify.

A:
Below I have attached our FAQ from the Guide on our website which explains pre-existing conditions, and provides some examples for you to review. Pre Existing Medical Conditions FAQ Please let us know if you have any additional questions, or any need any further assistance.

Q:If I don't have ACA coverage insurance for 2019 year, will I have to pay penalty when I file tax returns for 2019? And do you provide medical insurance which are not covered under ACA. If yes, what are the different healthcare/Medical plans do you have for family of 3?

A:
As per our knowledge there is no penalty for 2019, this would affect your taxes in 2020. To know more information regarding your tax obligations, we would recommend speaking with your tax adviser. You may purchase a short term health insurance plan option. One option we have available is the National General. Please keep in mind this plan is not ACA-compliant. It will primarily cover you for any new illness, injury or accident which occurs after the effective date of the policy. It will not cover pre-existing conditions, routine doctors' visits, or preventative treatments such as immunizations. Please use the link to view this plan and purchase:National General.
