Health & Dental Insurance with Coverage for Pre-existing Conditions

 

Guaranteed issue health & dental insurance plan may be the best solution for you if you want to have coverage for your pre-existing medical condition and medications.

 

Most Health & Dental Insurance plans are medically underwritten, which means that you are required to complete a medical questionnaire when applying for this coverage. Medical questionnaire is needed to determine your eligibility for this coverage, and your pre-existing medical conditions will be excluded from the policy even when you qualify for this insurance plan.

 

However, insurance companies also offer Guaranteed issue (or Guaranteed acceptance) Health & Dental Plans that do not require Medical Questionnaire at the time of application and cover pre-existing medical conditions and medications.

Guaranteed issue policies include coverage for Prescription Drugs, Dental Care, Extended Health benefits, Vision Care, Hospital and other benefits. But overall coverage provided by these plans is less than under medically underwritten health & dental insurance plans.

 

The following Guaranteed issue Health & Dental plans from Manulife, GMS, Green Shield are available. Explore the plans, get your instant ONLINE quotes, choose your best option and buy directly from the insurance company, or call us for assistance .
