The explanation appears in "fine print" in your certificate of coverage. The claim denial should tell you exactly the words from the certificate that is the basis for the denial. If you are not sastisfied with their answer, you can appeal the decision. THe denial letter should also give you instructions about how to appeal the decision.
You will have to fill out a questioneer and disclose your condition. Your prexisting conditions do indeed matter.
There are no limitations.
Any Health Insurance company can reject anyone with a pre existing condition. Look for another Health Insurance company if you are rejected by one.
A pre-existing condition any medical condition that your have been diagnosed with, prior to the time of application. Some pre-existing conditions can cause an applicant to be declined coverage. Other conditions may cause the insurance company to place a "rider" on the condition, meaning they would not cover the condition itslef but will still offer coverage to you.
With the passage of the Affordable Care Act, "pre-existing conditions" are no longer a barrier in health insurance.
Statute of limitations if the same for individuals, insurers, etc - each state has a different Statute of limitations
No, a mammogram is a test used to check for breast cancer, it is not a condition at all. Preexisting conditions are medical conditions you had prior to entering a health plan such as hypertension or diabetes.A mammogram is a test, not a condition as stated. To deny someone medical insurance stating that the mammogram they had was a preexisting condition is just a way these health insurance plans try to reduce the amount they have to pay on claims only wanting you to pay into them.

Medical Insurance policies will typically deal with pre-existing conditions in one of three ways: # Exclude the pre-existing condition from coverage, but offer other benefits as usual. # Place a 24 month moratorium (or waiting period) on the coverage of the condition. If the policyholder receives no treatment during the moratorium, the condition may be reconsidered for coverage. # Cover the condition by increasing the plan premium. This may not be applicable for all pre-existing conditions. # Cover the condition under a Medical History Disregarded benefit (MHD), which is typically only available to group coverage where 20 or more members are enrolled. There are no industry wide standards for dealing with pre-existing conditions, and each insurance company will provide coverage, or not, in their own way.
Any medical condition that happens prior to you applying for the medical insurance is going to be considered a pre-existing condition. If you're applying for individual insurance, most likely the condition will not be covered but possibly medication for the condition would be covered. If you're applying for group insurance, you can check with the benefits administrator at your job to see how pre-existing conditions are covered in the policy, reason being because individual and group policies differ in coverage.
In most jurisdictions there will not be a statute of limitations for a ticket. You have been informed of the violation and penalty.
With the passage of the Affordable Care Act, the concept of pre-existing conditions as a determinant of health care insurance is no longer an issue. Thanks, Barack Obama!
