What if a member is transferring into an individual plan from a group plan other than a Blue Cross and Blue Shield Plan, or an affiliate of Independence Blue Cross?
Individuals may continue coverage without being subject to a pre-existing condition exclusion only by enrolling in one of two traditional — sometimes called indemnity — individual plans that are offered by Independence Blue Cross and Highmark Blue Shield. These two traditional, individual plans can provide continued coverage without a pre-existing condition because they allow members to satisfy the eligibility requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996.
