Can an insurance company use the fact that I had an HIV test as the basis for increasing my premiums?
Filed Under Individual-Health-Insurance-Quote
I heard through the grapevine that someone from GB was in the U.S. and had a mandatory HIV test. My understanding is that subsequent to the test (and independent of the result – the test was negative) his health insurance premiums went up. In effect, the individual believes that the fact of having had an HIV test increased his premiums – e.g. as the test may have been a risk factor indicator to the insurance company. I am wondering if it is legal in the U.S. to use the simple fact of having had an HIV test as the basis for risk determination and adjustment of health insurance premiums. Thanks for your insights!
