Is it possible to change health insurance companies with a pre exsisting condition such as cancer? If so how?!?

A dear friend has Cancer in her liver and Has a state health insurance. I had hoped to get her into cancer treatment center of America but they dont take that insurance. Is it possible to change insurance or is there any funding available for this problem? Please help ASAP thank You so much!

Don't think that the Cancer Treatment Centers of America is a place that gives miracles to those with cancer. They don't do anything more than any major hospital does except they are quite expensive and don't take a lot of insurances. They might talk to you really nice and give you a massage and other things like that to make you feel better, but as far as treatment for cancer goes, there is nothing special going on there. They had to pull some of those commercials because they were misleading. If you watch the one where the lady gets cured, at the bottom there is a statement that says these results are not typical and do not assume you will have the same results. As far as your friend having state health insurance, I don't know if you are talking about state aid like welfare or she works for the state and has their state plan. I thought the new health insurance coverage that just passed that Obama fought so hard to get covered this problem of switching plans and then not being able to get coverage because of pre existing conditions. I believe that is no longer allowed, but you should check to make sure. You could call your congressman's office and they would be able to tell you.
