What You Need to Know about Idaho Health Insurance

Can I be turned down for Idaho health insurance because of my health status?

Your Idaho health insurance is somewhat dependent on your health status, but there are practices in place to help you maintain Idaho health insurance.

If you receive Idaho health insurance under a group plan, nondiscrimination says that your coverage cannot be denied or limited because of your health status. Additionally, if you are purchasing Idaho health insurance for a small group, the guaranteed issue says that coverage cannot be denied or limited because of the group's health status.

If you apply for individual Idaho health insurance and are turned down because of your health status, you may be eligible for coverage under Idaho's Individual High Risk Reinsurance Pool (HRP).

What if I can't afford Idaho health insurance?

If you are unable to afford Idaho health insurance, you may want to inquire about the following programs:

Idaho Medicaid provides free or discounted health coverage for expectant mothers, families, the elderly and disabled.

The Women's Health Check Program provides breast and cervical cancer screening for eligible Idaho women. Women who have been diagnosed through the program may also be eligible for treatment with Idaho Medicaid.

There may be other financial assistance programs available to you. For more information on these and other programs, dial 2-1-1 on the Idaho Care Line.

What does Idaho health insurance cover?

Your benefits will depend on what kind of Idaho health insurance you purchase, or what your agent will cover. However, there are some benefits mandated by the State of Idaho, such as breast reconstruction after a mastectomy. For more on mandated benefits, contact the Idaho Department of Insurance at (800)721-3272.

Can my Idaho health insurance be cancelled if I get sick?

No - most Idaho health insurance policies are guaranteed renewable, which means that your company or agent cannot cancel your Idaho health insurance if you become ill.
