Moving Will I Be Covered Under Current Health Insurance?
I am moving from California to Hawaii in August 2015. I currently have insurance through Covered California with Health Net. When I move to Hawaii, will I still be covered with Covered California/Health Net?
If not, how do I get health insurance (on my own) in Hawaii?
Thank you in advance for your assistance. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Answer
If you know your going to move, get a multi-state health plan. If you don't have a multi-state plan moving qualifies you for special enrollment.
Is it mandatory to change plans if you move out of state? I prefer to retain current multi-state coverage from the prior state for balance of the year (4 months) since my out-of-pocket max has been reached? All my costs will be covered in the new state under the current policy.
