What is the name of your state? Ohio.
Seven years ago I left my employer in order to start a home business. I continued my HMO coverage under COBRA and then through an Individual Conversion Plan. I have moved from the HMO service area. For this reason, the HMO has terminated my coverage effective 12/31/04. I have preexisting conditions (hypertension, type II diabetes, depression) for which I am taking medication. What are my options for continuing coverage under an HMO or (preferably) a Preferred Provider Plan? Does HIPPA cover this circumstance?
