THE NATIONAL HEALTH COUNCIL
Myrl Weinberg posted:
As you know, next week insurance companies will no longer be allowed to exclude people under the age of 19 with a pre-existing condition from receiving health care coverage. If you are a parent of a child with a chronic condition, contact your insurance company today to find out more information.

However, if you do not currently have insurance this resource shows a state-by-state interactive map with information on Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plans. Check it out today! It might help you find a policy right for you and your family.
