What is a HIPAA guaranteed-issue plan?
The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) makes it easier for people covered under existing group health plans to maintain coverage regardless of pre-existing conditions when they change jobs or are unemployed for brief periods of time. If you meet all specified conditions, you may be eligible for a guaranteed-issue plan in accordance with HIPAA, and we will automatically accept your application without underwriting. For more information, please call our account representatives at (888) 568-3560 Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. PST.
