Migraines, mild depression,.. and health insurance?
If someone has (undiagnosed) migraines, and a mild case of depression, would this affect their ability to retail individual health insurance?
If they already have individual health insurance, and have never submitted a claim or had any form of medical treatment, would they still likely have their insurance cancelled? What if they pay for any migraine or depression tests/treatments out of pocket?

Depression is not supposed to be a mitigating factor in a person losing their insurance anymore.
There is a mental health parity bill, check it out online.
I dont really see a problem, but of course, there can always be another issue happen or another thing that changes it all.
