Do Ins. consider Pg to be pre-existing?
| Mon, 08-25-2003 - 10:57pm |
I am changing jobs this week and I wont have insurance coverage with my new job until October 1st. However, (Surprise!) I am late and I want to go to the doc's office for a blood test. Is pregnancy considered a pre-existing condition with insurance companies? If I am pregnant, I wanna be sure this baby is covered!

Good luck to both of you.
Have you researched your company's short-term disability/maternity leave policy? A lot of companies have a 1-year minimum employment timeframe to qualify for short-term disability pay. You would still be able to take an unpaid leave/FMLA, but you wouldn't get the 60 or so % of pay for any portion of your leave.
Good luck to you!
