HIPAA prohibits any insurance company from adding and qualifying clauses in an insurance policy at the time of deciding the premium rates. HIPAA stops any insurance company from using the pre existing medical aliments or current health status, your medical history, your disabilities or any information form confidential medical records to determine the insurance premium. The premium charges cannot be varied from person to person. This ensures cheap health insurance quotes as far as the state of Tennessee is concerned.
