aaud - I really hope the surgery goes well. I remember the photo from your accident :shock: and it was awful to see those bruises. Don't worry, everything else will take care of itself...

Re: shoot me now [#permalink]
Hey guys, how are you paying for surgery? Does MBA student health insurance cover it?

I am an international student, and have injured my knee a few months ago working out. Lots of pain in the knee. Been doing the whole "knee brace/anti-inflammatory meds/glucosamine supplements" but not helping much. I am suspecting I need a minor surgery to fix something in there.

But about to leave for school in the US in less than 2 months, so much crap to prepare, etc. Might not have time til I get to the states. I do not have any additional insurance. So yeah, will student insurance cover it?

aceman - I think it may be questionable, as you will take out the policy with it as an existing problem. I am not too well versed on the ins-and-outs of insurance in the US, but I would not be surprised if they were difficult about it.

Aceman, I'm almost positive that pre-existing conditions would be covered by your school's health insurance. Pre-existing conditions only tend to come into play when you're purchasing insurance for yourself (outside of a large plan via your employer or school) or, in some cases, when you work for a very small company.
