Pre-existing Conditions

Amigo Medical excludes coverage for pre-existing conditions. Pre-existing refers to conditions for which you received medical treatment, diagnosis, care, or advice within a specific number of months immediately preceding your effective date. The pre-ex period is mandated by each state and will vary depending on the state in which Amigo Medical is purchased. This exclusion does not apply to a newborn or newly adopted child who is added to coverage.

 

Waiting Period

When coverage is purchased within 3 days of the effective date, you will only be entitled to receive benefits for sicknesses that begin, by occurrence of symptoms and/or receipt of treatment, at least 72 hours following the effective date. This waiting period does not affect benefits for injuries.

 

This is a partial list of exclusions and limitations. Please see the Certificate of Insurance for detailed information about these and other plan exclusions and limitations. Benefits, provisions, limitations and exclusions may vary by state.
