What is a pre-existing ailment?
A Pre-existing Ailment is an illness or condition where the signs or symptoms were evident (whether diagnosed by a doctor or not) at any time during a period of 6 months immediately prior to the time of joining CBHS. This is an industry standard rule applied by all health funds for the protection of existing members. The rule applies for 12 months continuous membership from the date of joining or when a member upgrades their cover.
