I just called Aetna in Virginia about continuing my insurance coverage after Cobra. The first rep gave me a flat out No when I said I have a preexisting condition (tiny little cancer issue).
Remarkably I did not scream and curse at poor CSR but asked about my other options. Usually I just hang up without continuing. She gave me another phone# which she said was high risk pool. But 2nd call agreed that VA has a HIPPA continuation which I will qualify for after Cobra ends. All is golden-maybe. They won't accept an application until end of Cobra coverage. I want to lock in now. Hence my vision of Lucy holding the football then jerking it away. Quick quotes on phone ranged from 614 to$ 1745.
Any thoughts ?
Mass was looking pretty good for a while. I actually web searched and found a couple of places I could be happy in. Except for the snow thing and one apartment was a high rise at the beach in Revere. I would like that for the 3 years I need insurance except it would be moving away from family.
