Health insurance
4 years ago
Hi,
I have a health insurance policy with a leading private insurance provider for the past 6 years. I did not have any pre-existing conditions when I took the policy. But 2 years back I was diagnosed with early stage psoriasis which does not require hospitalization, just out patient medication. So I did not make any claim in my medical insurance and have been renewing my policy. Recently I was told that I need to update my insurer if I have any health issues. Is this a problem. Can my insurance company decline any future claim on this basis. What is the correct process to update my insurance company.
A.Hi client,
If you have got a new medical issue, you should definitely let him know this. Immediately talk to your insurer.
Thank you
