Continuous coverage, with no breaks longer than 90 days, can give you credit toward the exclusion period. Both pregnancy and genetic information can be considered pre-existing conditions in Wyoming. Although there are no limitations by the State on the costs of premiums, your insurance cannot be cancelled if you get sick. Wyoming Health Insurance Pool will provide insurance to those who cannot get individual coverage.
