Health insurance for a person with a pre-existing condition in the state of Washington?

Aug 26, 2007 by goldengirl_calif | Posted in Other - Health

My husband who is 35 and a contractor has a pre-existing condition. Does somebody know of a health insurance who takes members with pre-existing conditions in the state of Washington?

I think a lot of times if you get health insurance from your employer, as a large group, that they don't exclude pre-existing conditions. But for individual policies, I suspect all companies do. Otherwise the ones that don't would put the ones who do out of business.

I'm self employed and researching health insurance options. I live and work in the state of Washington. Any good, affordable options?

There are a few ways to compare plans and rates before you find the most affordable plan for health insurance in the State of Washington.

You could look in the yellow pages under "health insurance" and contact a health insurance agent in your area who can give you quotes and review the plans available in your area. That way, if you have questions they can answer them for you before you decide.

Make sure to ask about any tax-deductions available to you for your self-employed health insurance premiums.

I hope that helps you find affordable health insurance in Washington.

Obama Pushes States to Cover More Unemployed

07.01.09

By JONATHAN WEISMAN and LAURA MECKLER

President-elect Barack Obama's economic team is pressing ahead with a costly economic-stimulus plan despite a projected $1.2 trillion budget deficit this year.

The incoming administration is convinced that international lenders will be more likely to keep the U.S. government afloat if they see aggressive action to emerge from recession, and that the potential costs from insufficiently bold action are greater than the dangers of rising interest rates from swelling deficits.

And Mr. Obama appears ready to up the ante. In an interview with CNBC on Wednesday, he acknowledged that the plan's price tag, currently $775 billion, is likely to rise. "We've seen ranges from 800 [billion] to 1.3 trillion and our attitude was that given the legislative process, if we start towards the low end of that, we'll see how it develops," he said.

Mr. Obama and his senior economic aides confronted projections from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office on Wednesday that the federal deficit will reach $1.2 trillion in the fiscal year that ends Sept. 30. That would shatter the nominal dollar record of $455 billion set in fiscal 2008. Measured against the size of the economy, the deficit -- at 8.3% of gross domestic product -- is expected to eclipse the postwar record of 6% in 1983.
