Question About Coverage

Hey guys so I was FINALLY approved and I'm STILL under my parent's insurance (24 & fulltime student) well my father's work as a stipulation that I had to be claimed on their taxes..

THEY JUST got their taxes done and they couldn't claim me so when my dad goes into work he'll be talking to them and I'll probably be dropped

My surgery is March 20th... within the 30 days of coverage... actually 25 days...

do you think my surgery will get dropped? i'm super worried:confused_smile:

Hmmm so what would the insurance have done if you parents didn't file until April 15th? You would of already had the surgery. Hopefully when your dad talks to the company rep..the rep will call the insurance carrier and find out what applies. That might be a question they want to ask though...would the insurance take the payment back had they found out after your surgery that you weren't claimed on your parents taxes. Odd stipulation that's for sure. Good luck!
