Ins update

First, thanks for the sympathy and offers of support. That means a lot. Yesterday was rather awful to deal with.
Next: some good news. My (and kid's) PCP/office WILL be picking up Neighborhood health. So, I don't have to make hard decisions there. Further, my chiro does, too. I guess the person I initially talked to was not the expert at all. Mind you, I go from $15 copay to $40, so .... ::flump:: Seeing my therapist out of pocket will apparently, for now, be $60, so I can live with that once... or twice. I think I have a bit of FSA to spend, so will do so there? I dunno. No longer full out panicking.

Finally, when I figured out how screwed I was and told my boss, it sounds like they're not just going to be complacent, but figure something out, so that's definitely better than nothing. I just resent the slap-dash nature in which this all came about.
Thanks again-

<3 I'm very relieved to hear this -- also not surprised that folks were uninformed about which insurances they take; that was a really hard thing to keep track of and took me a long time to learn, when I worked in that industry. But it also means I'm terribly familiar with how much this sucks.

ALSO, I haven't seen any notice that we actually have lost the old insurance as of 4/1, so I'm just going to have my therapists put in with the old coverage... it'll at least buy me some time.

Thanks

I'm glad to hear it's not as totally sucky as it originally seemed. *hugs*

Thankee- I am rather relieved.
Also found out today that we have the library's old insurance for another 10 days, so not as dire... not great, but not on FIRE. :)
