COBRA Health Insurance for one week?

jasonthejedi asked:


I’m quitting my job on October 24th (with a large employer) and am starting a job on the 27th. I won’t have insurance with the new job until November 1. This means my insurance will end at midnight on the 24th with Company A and begin at midnight on the 1st with Company B. That’s one whole week for those who can’t do math. However, I’m an extremely low risk person. Is it possible to get COBRA retroactively if something were to happen that one week? I ask because I don’t want to pay COBRA for one month, but I’d be more than willing to pay the price if something catastrophic (God forbid) were to happen that week.
I’m pretty sure termination of employment is covered by COBRA. I gave my two weeks. I’m not getting fired on the 24th.
Thanks for all the input so far! And yes about the midnight thing. I checked with HR and they told me it would end at midnight on my last day of employment. It’s pretty sad that they would do that even though I am leaving on good terms and have been with them for 6 years. However, it just adds one more reason as to why I don’t want to work for them anymore.

LOVER asked:


My mom doesn’t have health insurance and my job doesn’t give insurance to family members.

I would like to pay monthly to a health insurance company so my mom could get health check up when she needs it.

Do you know any health insurance companies that can accept low monthly payments since I don’t get paid that much?

MFlo asked:


I am 18 years old, and I am moving to California from Massachusetts next month (without my parents). I am under my own (not my parent’s) health insurance here in Massachusetts. I do have some health problems, so I will need health insurance as soon as I get out there. Is there any way I can apply now so that I will be covered as soon as I move? Also, I am completely illiterate in government jargon, so I don’t know (or understand) anyyy thing about their health insurance. Can anyone help?

Why is the co-pay for dental insurance more expensive than health insurance?

2fine4u asked:


I compared the co pays on several reputable dental insurance companies and it is very expensive. Many things are not covered, even with the best dental insurance. Health insurance is usually a 10 dollar co pay for primary physicians and a 35-50 dollar co pay for specialty physicians. Is there any reason why dental insurance co pay is as expensive as it is?

Kal H asked:


I’m a generally healthy 44 y/o male whose lousy employer doesn’t even offer a buy-in health insurance plan. Since I don’t want to go bankrupt if something should befall me, 1. Should I purchase catastrophic health care insurance, and 2. How do I find a reliable provider that isn’t too expensive? Thanks.
I’m in California, if that makes any difference.

Stanley C asked:


I have no clue how the insurance industry works, so I feel like I’m in a bad position to bargain shop. I tend not to trust slick advertising. Do I need to read a book? Are there trust-worthy, friendly, smart professionals who can meet and talk with you about this? What are they even called??
