Anyone heard of this requirement?



Recommended Posts

So I have been called my insurance regarding if this or that is covered and whatnot.

Everything is covered at 100% however one rep with my insurance stated that since I have

not been with my current employer for 1 year that I would have to wait until I hit that date.

Spoke to the lady at Surgeons office regarding scheduling everything else and mentioned the 1 year thing

and she said she has never heard of this requirement.

I have no idea...Anyone heard of this?

If it matters I have Sutter Select under UMR.

I have heard of that. Not sure if it can be waived. Since only one person mentioned it I would call back and ask specifically!

Yes, it has to do with the type of policy your employer has.

I was afraid of this. I will call again and the office will call to verify.

I'm glad I only have to wait until Nov 1st at least its fairly close :)

that sounds like a policy thing which your company probably requires. Call and double check

I'm not 100% sure, but this almost sounds like a pre-existing condition clause. Let us know what you find out.
