  • Insurance question and surgery....

    My wife is between jobs and she will be uncovered for a 2 month period. She has to have surgery on her ankle on jan 12, can we sign up for a different policy and within a month have her surgery covered? how does this work? bad timing on the surgery and job switch, doctor told us months ago the exact date surgery had to be and job change was already in effect....lots of bad luck on timing here!

    Maybe she qualifies for a temporary extension of her provious health coverage under COBRA benefits.

      Yes cobra possibly, but also see the CASH price of the surgery usually a lot less

        cash price is about half price, BUT still like 5k out of pocket if we can not find coverage, old coverage will not cover her since we moved out of state...

          COBRA is your best bet, especially if she's going to try and apply with a new ins. company with a pre-existing condition that requires surgery.
