opti fast and ins issues

[teamme513 2]

I am on opti fast and hate it...is there a different alternative? Something more natural that I can actually eat? Drinking this crap is not working for me.

Also my ins has approved my procedure and I have already met my deductible but I lost my job Thursday and I'm scheduled for June 12th. I don't want to not get my surgery but I'm not sure what my other options are. Any advice?

You should be able to elect COBRA and there will be no break in your coverage. It can be expensive but worth it for the surgery! Good luck!

I agree with ^^. It will be for one month or so. Can be the best decision.

Yes, if it was not for "gross misconduct" they should offer. As long as there are about 20 or more on your company's group plan. They have about two weeks to offer and you have 60 days to elect the coverage.
