I don't think this is an option. My husbands insurance is paid 100% by his employer we pay zero co-pays for anything...I mean NOTHING. I don't think cobra is an option...and if it is it would probably be CRAZY expensive. I will talk to my lawyer about seeing If I can get him to keep me on but in all honesty I don't think that will be an option either.

I currently have Kaiser as my insurance and am about to start the Options class in order to have the surgery done. Problem is, I am also in the process of a divorce and on my soon to be ex-husbands insurance. I am hoping I can complete the class and the surgery before our divorce is final and insurance runs out. I am thinking I have a good 6-8 months (fingers crossed before everything gets squared away. Our divorce process has taken over a year and a half and I am KICKING myself that I didn't start this process sooner. My insurance covers the sleeve 100% with no c-pay. Would not have cost me a dime! Anyways, if the insurance runs out before the surgery, i have money saved to go to Mexico (Dr. Kelly) and have the surgery done. My question is, When my insurance runs out I will only have state funded medical insurance (Medi-Cal..I'm in California) until I find a job (Nursing School Graduate). My worry is that if I have the surgery in Mexico and then try to get coverage in the states with insurance it will be considered a Pre-Existing condition and no insurance will take me? For those of you that went to Mexico. has your insurance covered anything pertaining to your sleeve...ie compliction, medications etc.
