Perches in the Soul

Offically uninsurable…well nearly

Published by Amy under General on August 28, 2007

Its official, I am not covered under the Wake Med insurance policy. Congenital (that would be birth defect or genetic disease) diseases are NOT covered, period, end of story. The lady was very upfront.  There is a very small chance I will be able to stay on my parents’ policy due to a loophole but its very small. I called the Office of Student Services and explained the problem, they put me on hold and then sent me straight to the Dean something that NEVER happens. I explained to the Dean my story and he said he had no idea such was the case. He would get back to me, but he sounded as if he had swallowed something bitter. I then looked into individual policies….over a 1000 dollars a month. And the only reason they will even consider covering me is because I always had insurance.

over a 1000 dollars a month…….

The Dean said he would call me back.

    we complain about the state of the NHS but atleast it’s free and we’d never be left without necessary treatment like that. Madness.

    I would seriously suggest seeing if your parents would consider changing their policy to blue cross blue shield if they can…it would cover you until age 25 so long as you were in school.
