Is a stroke considered a pre-existing condition?
Answer provided by a licensed Insurance advisorLicensed U.S. Insurance Specialist at VisitorsCoverage
It is always up to the doctor's discretion to diagnose a pre-existing condition. There may be a 2 year "look back period" which means the attending medical staff will look back two years into your medical records and health history to look for any other instance or treatment of stroke or a related condition. Some plans may provide coverage for unexpected life-threatening situations related to pre-existing conditions.
