| Hey, I think that you should shop for health insurance. It'll cover the expenses of medical bills, doctor's bills, hospitalization costs, prescription drug and so forth. However, if you have already been diagnosed with a health condition that requires immediate medical attention, you may find it difficult to get coverage, sine most of the insurer will not cover the existing medical situation, and will treat it as a pre-existing condition. |

OP, this may be considered a pre-existing condition and regardless of the policy you buy '''could'' be excluded...are you saying that as of this time you have NO health insurance at all?

| You have lost me over here, if you have health policy in place why won't they cover the expenses of the treatment? You were required to check what is covered under the policy before buying it. This is a common mistake that we all commit but its always important to read the policy document, especially the exclusion part of the policy document to know about our rights. |
