Insurance Discrimination Against Victims of Abuse

The Medical Information Bureau (MIB) is
a data bank of medical and nonmedical
information on nearly 15 million Americans,
collected from the MIB’s 800 insurance
company members.
The companies send the MIB information
you have written on applications, enrollment
forms, and requests for upgrading coverage
for health, life or disability insurance. The MIB
also records information from medical exams,
blood and lab tests, and hospital reports,
when such information is legally obtainable.
