Pre-Existing Conditions A pre-existing condition is one for which there has been diagnosis, treatment (including the use of prescribed drugs), or medical advice within the six month period prior to the effective date of coverage or a condition for which symptoms existed within the six month period prior to the date of coverage and for which a prudent person would have ordinarily sought treatment.

Pre-existing conditions will not be covered until a member has been continuously enrolled under this plan for 9 (nine) months. In some cases, KPS Health Plans will apply credit for pre-existing conditions if the person enrolling has been covered by a prior group or individual health benefit plan that is considered "creditable" coverage (i.e., a plan that had benefits as good or better than this plan), at any time during the 63 (sixty-three) day period immediately preceding the receipt date of the application.
