 Turned Down for Health Insurance AGAIN!
Hello,
I am new to this site and am so excited that I found an entire group devoted to PCOS. I was diagnosed with PSOC thirty years ago! I lost a lot of weight in my mid 30's and without even trying became pregnant with my daughter. I have normal cholesterol, normal BP and am about 20 lbs overweight. I had a heart scan which shows no plaque. I do take Metformin. I am self employed and need to carry my own coverage for heath insurance. My rate has gone up so unbelievably high (I could buy a house for the payment) and I have a very high deductible. I have been applying for coverage from different carriers (5 in all) and they all have denied me for one reason only, PCOS. They state that regardless of the severity it is too high a risk factor to insure. I was wondering if anyone else has been in this situation and if so which company did you go with. I may have to move to Canada!! Thanks for your help and I'm happy to have found you. |
