What kind of healthcare professionals take care of children with asthma?

Where can I find lots of health and wellness information for asthma? Do health insurance plans discriminate against people who have asthma?

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

The type of healthcare professionals who will handle Asthma cases are the patients PCP (Primary Care Physician) as well as an Allergist/Immunologist, who specialize in handling allergic type diseases such as Asthma. As to whether or not a health insurance company will discriminate against someone with Asthma, it’s a known fact that most health insurance companies will raise premiums on those who apply with them with an existing condition. As for those who are already covered, maybe being dropped with Asthma this is something that would be outlined from your current health provider about what they will cover or not.

Some websites that you can go to for information on Asthma, the symptoms, the treatments, and maybe ways to help prevent an attack are: Google Health, Mayo Clinic. Mediline Plus and WebMD. All of these websites have good information on Asthma and other conditions.
