HIPAA Notice of Special Enrollment:
If you are declining enrollment for yourself or your dependents
(including your spouse) because of other health insurance or group health
plan coverage, you may be able to enroll yourself and your dependents in
this plan if you or your dependents lose eligibility for that other
coverage (or if the employer stops contributing towards your or your
dependents' other coverage). However, you must request enrollment within
the time period specified by your plan (you can check a copy of your
plan document) after your or your dependents' other coverage ends (or
after the employer stops contributing toward the other coverage). In
addition, if you have a new dependent as a result of marriage, birth,
adoption, or placement for adoption, you may be able to enroll yourself
and your dependents. However, you must request enrollment within the
time period specified by your plan (you can check a copy of your plan
document) after the marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for
adoption. General Notice of Pre-existing Condition
Exclusion: This plan excludes coverage for medical conditions you
may have before you enroll in this plan. Unless you have continuous
qualifying health coverage, you may have to wait a certain period of time
for coverage for your existing health conditions. The exclusion applies to
conditions for which medical advice, diagnosis, care or treatment was
recommended or received within up to a six-month period before your
enrollment date. This exclusion does not apply to pregnancy or to a child
who is enrolled in the plan within 30 days after birth, adoption, or
placement for adoption. This exclusion may last up to 12 months (or 18
months for a late entrant) from your first day of coverage or the first
day of your waiting period. A late entrant is an individual who does not
enroll in the plan when first eligible to do so. The exclusion can be
reduced by any days of creditable health coverage you had before enrolling
if there is no gap in this coverage greater than 63 days. Your application
for an individual insurance policy during a gap in coverage could reduce
the gap in coverage. To reduce the exclusion period that applies to you,
give us a copy of any certificate(s) of creditable coverage from a
previous employer. If you do not have a certificate, but you have prior
coverage, contact your former employer for a certificate. If you cannot
obtain a certificate, we will help you get a certificate from your former
employer or insurer. You can demonstrate creditable coverage by proving
that you were covered using other documentation. Questions on the
statements above may be addressed to Blue Cross customer service at
1-888-878-0138 or (651) 662-5035.
