Does anyone know how, or if, the newly upheld healthcare legislation (particularly the part that prohibits denial of coverage for pre-existing conditions) may/will effect Longterm Care coverage? It may currently be a loophole(?) -- I don't know -- but I'm sure I'm not the only person here to have been denied, or told to not even bother applying, due to current conditions/factors.
Thanks,
Doc

as I understand the writ part ..is denial for pre-existing conditions, terminated coverage for long term care , and being denied for coverage for long term care. also the ceiling has been lifted meaning if you presently have insurance with a term of say 1 million dllrs limit for term of coverage.. this is no longer allowed . and they have until 2014 to make sure all these changes were made . also they are supposed to make insurance more affordable. question is .. affordable to whose pocket????
