What is HIPAA Coverage?
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) was written to provide "portability" of insurance coverage when leaving a group insurance plan.
If you have had group coverage and meet certain criteria, you may be able to obtain individual health insurance, even if you have ongoing health conditions.
Because HIPAA plans are not medically underwritten, they may cost more than medically underwritten plans. You should carefully evaluate both plans and apply for the one that best suits your situation and needs.
