joy59 81 Posted August 27, 2014 Started on this journey in March. Had date for surgery September 9th. Then last month insurance changed requirements to 6 months of NUT visits from the original 4. Last week I heard the requirements were changed back to 4 so we were on for end of Sept. Then my position was eliminated after 16 years and now insurance ends Sept. 1st. I am having a harder time wondering what will happen with the surgery then having to look for another job. Bad day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
auntjanny 289 Posted August 27, 2014 yes, a bad day indeed. Sorry for this crap. Consider paying for COBRA benefits to continue with the surgery. use your unemployment time to heal and regroup, gain confidence and find something new. I know it sounds easier that it is, but, COBRA may be an option for you. You have gone through so much and were so close to the surgery, I cannot imagine the angst. Good luck and best wishes to you.

SugarFreeMe 293 Posted August 27, 2014 I agree with auntjanny, Cobra may cost you a bit, but when you find another position you may not have the option again to even have the procedure. Don't give up yet, find a way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joy59 81 Posted August 27, 2014 I have a call out to the coordinator I found out Copra will cost $2000 a month so I really hope and pray it will still happen in September. I kept going back and forth about waiting but i really need this for my health. I appreciate all your support. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
