Due to changes with Health Care Reform, dependents can now be covered to age 26, if the dependent is not eligible for another employer-sponsored health plan.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (continued) Is there a pre-existing condition clause?Yes, a pre-existing condition is an injury or illness for which you have received medical advice, treatment, or incurred expenses within 6 months prior to your enrollment date.

These periods may be reduced by any creditable coverage that you may have had with a previous employer-sponsored or individual insurance plan. No pre-existing limitation will be applied to pregnancy.
