Hello to all....

Well i have to do the 3 month supervised weight loss treatment before aetna approves me., im already half way through i have done 1 visit with P.C.P. physc and with dietician and im scheduled for the second appointment with all three in the first week of September.. but now we have a rock in our way.. My wife works for verizon and they are on strike (my wife is the health ins. primary holder) we have received a letter that we will have coverage till Aug 31 and we should look into Cobra for insurance needs there after.... This sucks.. I hope this strike can be settled soon.., Our Cobra Ins quote is $17K.. crazy! ANY ONE FAMILIAR WITH COBRA?

$17K for one month of COBRA sounds ridiculous, are you sure that's what it says? Are you sure it's not $1700?

$17,000 a year I could see but not a month. Do you have an option to pick up insurance? You can do this when you have a life status change like losing coverage.

If she went back to work would she get to keep her insurance? If not you are stuck with starting over? I feel bad for you.

its 17k a year... and if the strike continues i may have to start the process again once my wife heads back to work.. ahhh sucks...

My wife is heading back to work... Yea BABY Contract back in place...
