Will my insurance company keep my abortion confidential?

Question

If I do decide to get an abortion I don’t want my mother to find out. I will pay the 10% required right then and there but im curious will my mom get like a receipt of some sort in the mail saying this medical procedure happen on this day, or if I request it can they keep it confidential?

Answer 1

Abortion is murder with a different name think about it that is one person that will never walk, never breath and, never have the life you got

but yes they would

Answer 2

If your mom is the primary on the policy and you use her insurance, she will get an explanation of benefits. It will list the procedure, but will be coded under the medical coding practices. She may or may not know what the code is for. She will not have the right to contact the doctor to find out what went on, unless you are underage. She will have the right to find out from her insurance company what they paid for.

Answer 3

you must talk to your doctor whatever report he submit insurance company pay according to that

Answer 4

It will be kept confidential.

Answer 7

I don't know why you're so worried about how your mom would feel about you getting an abortion, think about how you're gonna feel after you do it. You can hear a baby's heartbeat 20 days after conception. And how can an insurance company pay for a murder??? You should ask your mom for help, don't go behind her back.

Answer 9

The policy holder will get an explanation of benefits from your insurance carrier.  If you do not want her to get this information, you should call your insurance carrier and ask them to supress the explanation of benefits. If you are under 18, there may not be much you can do about it.

Answer 10

first, call the insurer and see if it is a covered procedure. second, if you can not tell your parents, consider calling planned parenthood and get some guidance on how to proceed. Best of luck to you. If you feel you must have an abortion, don't let other people's opinions deter you. It is your legal right. I know of a girl who told her father that she was pregnant, and he beat her so badly she lost the baby. Whatever you do, stay safe. If your parents would be mad but not violent and would ultimately help you through this, be brave and tell them. If they love you, they will help you. If telling them would put you in physical jeopardy, don't tell them. Find out what it costs through planned parenthood and see if you can make a payment plan, if necessary, in case the insurance doesn't work out. Also, of course, if your parents get the insurance notifications, they will get this one, too.

Answer 11

Yes, she will get an EOB.

DON'T kill your baby PLEASE.

Go to your mom and get help.

Answer 12

An Explanation of Benefits (EOB) is mailed to the policyholder for every claim the insurance company processes.

Most likely, the description would read either "outpatient service" or "outpatient surgery,"  (Or something vague like that.)

If your mother does actually read the EOBs that come addressed to her, she will know that you had medical services done on that date.  She won't know exactly what you had done, but if you know that your mother is the type to pressure you for information you may want to take that into consideration.

Also, you may have done this already, but you should verify that an elective abortion would actually be covered on your policy.

The employer decides whether or not to cover or exclude abortion when negotiating its benefit plan.  There is no universal answer that "XYZ Insurance covers abortion," because every employer group with "XYZ Insurance" can choose whether to purchase a policy that does or doesn't cover an elective abortion.  Based on what I've observed, roughly half of employer group policies would cover such a procedure.  (In other words...you need specific confirmation whether yours actually does!)

(Not going into anything else here, because your question was specifically related to insurance coverage only.)

Answer 13

If your mom is the primary person on the insurance than no it won't be kept a secret because the EOB will be addressed to her. I can't believe your insurance is willing to pay for something like that. That is very unusual. Who is your insurance provider?

Answer 14

Tierra, please try calling one of these numbers:

Carenet/Heartbeat 1-800-395-HELP

Crisis Pregnancy Helpline 1-888-4-OPTIONS

Birthright 1-800-550-4900

National Life Center 1-800-848-LOVE

Bethany Christians Services 1-800-238-4269

Be sure you are fully informed before you make this decision. Most women end up regretting their abortion.  Your future physical and mental health should be important to you, even if it is hard for you to think about the child growing inside of you because he or she doesn't yet seem real to you.
