Health Insurance for Those Moving to Georgia
Georgia has one of the fastest growing economies in the US, with excellent schools, an exciting quality of life, and myriad opportunities available to advance. Many people are moving to this state from other US locations and from outside the US. However, these new residents must be sure that they provide for a smooth transition of their health insurance coverage. Careful planning ahead of time can establish whether or not current health insurance coverage will transfer to Georgia or if new coverage will be necessary. Pay special attention to rules concerning lapse in coverage and pre-existing conditions.

Tips for Changing Health Plans in Georgia
-
If you have accepted a job in Georgia, check with your employer to see which health insurance provider is used and what coverage you will have.
-
Both PPO plans and HMO plans will give you a list of qualified doctors from which to choose. You may be able to have your medical records sent to the new doctor at the time of your move.
-
Investigate your current health insurance policy. If you can be insured by the same regional or national company, you may be able to transfer your coverage to the new state and avoid any lapse in coverage or issues with pre-existing conditions.
-
If you are going to seek employment and don’t know what type of insurance a new employer may offer, you may want to purchase a temporary insurance plan to see you through the transition.
-
Even if your employer offers basic coverage, you may still need supplemental insurance for dental, vision, or prescriptions.
-
Georgia insurance regulations permit health insurance companies to deny coverage or charge you more for coverage if you (or a family member) are ill.
-
If you need to select a new health insurance provider, be sure to get quotes from several different health insurance providers in order to get the most coverage you can afford for your growing family.
