schufs asked:
I am seriously looking for a new job. The only thing is that, not only must I be able to get medical insurance through the job(the sooner the better), but I have a pre-existing condition.
I am more concerned about the pre-existing condition and whether they would still offer me insurance
So I wouldn’t be able to get insurance through the company unless I waited, sy, 3 months like everyone else, and then another waiting period for my pre-existing condition after that?

Each company has it’s own waiting period. Check about COBRA coverage and see if it’s something you can have until your new policy takes effect. COBRA is kind of a gap insurance so if you lose your job, you have a short period of time to keep the coverage until you can do something else. Unfortunately, the cost is usually more than we can afford because of a job change or loss. If you have coverage where your company pays part of your monthly premium, once you go to COBRA, you have to pay the full amount since your company will no longer pay their part. Kind of *****. Good Luck anyway…
