health insurance for pre-existing injury
What is the name of your state? Pennsylvania
I am 26 years-old. I hurt my ankle at 17 years-old lifting weights in my high-school weightroom. In non-medical terms, I shattered a bone in my ankle which required arthroscopic surgery. At the time, I was covered by my father's health insurance, i.e. Blue Cross and Blue Shield. I was dropped at 23 years-old and haven't purchased a health insurance policy since. I am self-employed. In essence, I still have an ankle condition and am a candidate for ankle replacement. I am looking for the most efficient and economical healthcare solution for the long term (i.e. health insurance for my pre-existing injury) and I want to use the surgeon of my choice from possibily another state. Should I pursue legal assistance with this matter and if so, how could it benefit me? If I buy my own health insurance policy w/Blue Cross and Blue Shield, would my condition still be considered pre-existing?
Thanks!
