Family Health Insurance Regulations in Nebraska (NE):
Self-employed individuals living in Nebraska are not eligible for group health plans, but small businesses are eligible and the state puts limits on premium costs.
If your family is covered under a group insurance policy, Nebraska limits exclusion coverage for pre-existing conditions to 12 months. Insurance companies can review medical records up to 6 months prior to the start of your plan's effective date. (The maximum exclusion time for group plans can be up to 18 months for late enrollees.)
If you are looking at individual health plans for your family, take note that Nebraska's private insurance companies have the right to deny individual coverage because of a medical condition, and the state puts no limits on exclusion periods or premiums.
For Nebraska residents who cannot afford health insurance, the state does offers Medicaid and Kids Connection for children.
For residents who have previously been denied health coverage for various reasons, the state of Nebraska also provides a subsidized insurance pool - the Nebraska Comprehensive Health Insurance Pool (CHIP).
