B is misleading. Conditions can exist but still be insurable later.

I think the answer is C. It makes sense that treatment before coverage matters.

Wait, so if I get sick after I buy insurance, it might not be covered?

Pre-existing conditions? More like "pre-existing excuses to get out of work."

I have a pre-existing condition called "being awesome." Does that count?

C makes the most sense. Insurers need to know about any pre-existing issues to determine coverage and pricing.

C is the right answer. Insurance companies don't want to cover conditions that existed before the policy was in place.

The correct answer is definitely C. Pre-existing conditions are those that have been diagnosed or treated before the policy starts.

C) Have been medically treated or diagnosed prior to the effective date of coverage.

I’m really unsure about this one. I thought pre-existing conditions could also develop after the policy starts, which makes me think about D, but that doesn’t seem right.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I feel like the answer is C since it mentions medical treatment prior to the policy.

I remember something about how pre-existing conditions are treated differently, but I’m not sure if it’s C or D. They definitely have to be diagnosed before coverage starts, right?

I think pre-existing conditions are those that must exist before an applicant can be accepted by an insurer, so I’m leaning towards B.

I'm a little confused by the wording of the options. I'll need to re-read this a few times to make sure I understand what they're asking.

I'm confident C is the right answer. The question is specifically asking about conditions that existed prior to the coverage, so that's the key.
AL
Alva

Okay, let me think this through. A pre-existing condition is something that existed before the policy, so C seems like the best answer.
