Legal Question in Health Care Law in Florida
health insurance/worker's comp injury
My personal health insurance coverage states it doesn't cover claims that worker's comp would cover. I believe it is meant for an current injury that happens when they are my personal carrier., therefore worker's comp. must pay.
It also states it Does cover pre-existing conditions as long as I have met those requirements (waiting period or continuous coverage for 12 months).
I had an eye injury on the job and settled my worker's comp. case over 2-years ago. My new/current personal health insurance carrier was not my carrier at the time or the worker's comp. case/injury. Would they exclude me from coverage being it was a worker's comp related injury from the past, or should this fall under pre-existing conditions? Could you shed some light on this for me? Thank you!

You will need to check the terms of the coverage, but under most circumstances, you would be covered.
