From acne to pregnancy, here's every 'preexisting condition' that could put your insurance at risk under the Senate's healthcare bill
Lydia Ramsey Business Insider July 13, 2017
AP - Republicans in the Senate released an updated version of the Better Care Reconciliation Act, their plan to overhaul the US healthcare system.
Included in the revised bill is an amendment from Sen. Ted Cruz and Sen. Mike Lee that critics say could make plans with adequate coverage unaffordable to those who have certain medical conditions.
The amendment would allow plans to exist that don't comply with two regulations set up under the Affordable Care Act: community rating and essential health benefits. The latter could have a big impact on preexisting conditions.
So what counts as a preexisting condition that could get you denied coverage under the new plan?
A lot.
