Lost My Insurance, Now I'll Have To Start Over.

Super bummed today. My job sent me a notice cancelling my insurance since I dropped under the minimum average hours when I had a cyst removed via surgery in february. I was only staying there for the insurance since we moved an hour away and commuting is expensive. Have been interviewing here the last week so let's pray for a decent job with bariatric benefits. Luck is just never around when I need it, I could find 10 four leaf clovers in one day and still be unlucky. Hopeful for my future. :/

I'm so sorry to hear this. :( I know there are som jobs that offer health insurance from day one. My daughter in laws sister just got a job with benefits from day one. She's working at one of the airport shops here in Kansas City. If you're close to an airport you might check. The other option for you might be Care Credit. They have up to 12 months no interest financing. Good luck honey. I hope this helps.

Not sure what you used to do but you may want to apply at a bank- they normally start you out with benefits but, mine requires one yr before it would cover biatrics - hope this helps~ good luck!

If you have no insurance you should apply for medicaid. I don't know if you have to go threw a process of 6 months or so,but it's worth getting. Find out and give him a try.
