Good advice. If he could be declared incompetent at the time he switched that could save him.
That is the same that I was told by somebody more knowledgeable on the subject than anyone else I know.
Just to be clear, I would guess it was an Advantage plan, and not a Supplement Plan. There is a big difference and I don't think a Supplement plan would have caused this.
Don't know what kind of plan it was. Just that he had seen it on TV. But the main insurer is Medicare, the supplemental is from the company we worked for.
Unless they have totally screwed up Obamacare, insurance companies are required to cover pre-existing conditions.
He said it would not cover his preexisting conditions. How he knows that and how long this has been going on I don't know.
Curious what would be considered screwing up the travesty that was presented as "the Affordable Care Act". It was a disaster from the get go.
Everybody and I mean everybody that I worked with had their rates triple to quadruple under obamercare. The only ones who came out ahead on it were the ones who had never worked, never intended to work, and wouldn't work if you offered them a good job.
I am going to try to stay as far away from this situation as I can. The man has an older brother (worthless), an older sister (in bad health), and three sons who will have to straighten this out. I posted this to tell everybody to watch out for their parents and siblings who might not be thinking clearly because of age or illness.
I hate it because this hard working, honest guy is gonna get screwed over because he just does not understand anymore.
