We are not COBRA. For specific contract details about your current company policy, contact your health plan administrator.
I am moving from New York to California. I am presently employed. I am covered by NY Blue Cross/Blue Shield. I have called a number of companies in CA and gotten different answers to whether or not I can get individual coverage since my COBRA coverage would not be transferrable. I have a number of medical conditions including MS and hypothyroidism. I have been told that I would have to pay lots extra because I have pre-existing conditions and would not be eligible for individual insurance any other way, even though I would not have any days where there would be a lack of coverage.
Is this correct?
