Why should I avoid Acute Onset of Pre-Existing Conditions Plans?Acute Onset of Pre-Existing Conditions are emergency sicknesses caused by an existing medical issue. Acute Onset of Pre-Existing Conditions are very rare- and you will be hard pressed to get any benefits paid from an acute onset plan. The main reason is that insurance companies do not define what "Acute Onset" is- so they have the legal ability to deny claims saying a sickness was not acute onset or was a pre-existing condition.
Most providers who offer acute onset of pre-existing conditions plans have terrible customer experiences when it comes to claims. Moreover- some of their former clients have even sued the providers for false advertising the pre-existing condition coverage and make claims too burdensome! Not to mention- all other Insurance for Visitors uses Non-Admitted Unregulated underwriters who are based on offshore tax havens in the middle of the Mediterranean. How are Pre-Existing Conditions Determined?The doctor makes a diagnosis based on a number of factors, including lab tests, patient health history, and an examination of the patients symptoms. From this process, the doctor can determine if a medical condition is caused by a pre-existing condition. This information is then shared with the insurance company.
