What is guaranteed issue?

Guaranteed issue means that you get insurance coverage up to a certain amount without having to answer medical questions during enrollment. Sometimes, even when an insurance company issues coverage, they might specifically call out any medical issues you have prior to getting the coverage (i.e. you broke your arm a week before signing up for coverage and you’re still getting treatment for it.)
