A group health plan, and a health insurance issuer offering health insurance coverage in connection with a group health plan, may not collect genetic information with respect to any individual prior to that individual's effective date of coverage under that plan, nor in connection with the rules for eligibility that apply to the individual. Whether or not an individual's information is collected prior to that individual's effective date of coverage is determined based upon the time of collection.
