Health insurance with high blood pressure?

 

A member asks:

Can I get health insurance if I have high blood pressure?

OnlineAdviser responds:

High blood pressure that is controlled by medication is not an obstacle to qualification for any health insurance listed at Freedom Benefits. We cannot speak for all health plans other than those represented here, but it appears that blood pressure controlled with medication is no longer a significant underwriting issue for health insurance.

Uncontrolled high blood pressure is a serious health condition that demands immediate attention. Treatment for hypertension is relatively inexpensive even without insurance so have this issue addressed before applying for commercial health insurance.
