  1. depends on the policy some will some wont...
  2. There is normally a "waiting Period" for pre-existing conditions to be covered under a new Med plan . UNLESS you had been covered previousely for at least a specific amount of time and had coverage for the "Shots" you may have taken before, then you may need to wait for 6 months before coverage KICKS IN If you fail to infrm the New Med provider of a presnet conditon, they can cancel you in the future if its shown you were not truthful on your original APP. Some Group Plans do nat have a preexisting requirement waiting period, and you WOULD be able to get overgae ASAP... but that's usually on Work Group Health coverage.... Good Luck
  3. You don't say what kind of shots you need, but most health department offer at least some of what you need at a reduced rate. Here is a page to Florida Dept of Health page: http://www.doh.state.fl.us/ Use the drop down box to find the services available in your county. As far as Humana covering it, unless there is a medical necessity, usually they do not cover these types of immunizations. But the only way to know for sure is to call and ask.
  4. The answer could vary by person.It is alway a good idea to hear the suggestion from different sides and try to choose the best one.Here http://www.HealthInsuranceIdeas.info/free-online-health-insurance.htm is a good one i recommend.
