Thread regarding Lowe's Cos. layoffs

Medical insurance and COBRA Question

Is #Lowes going to discontinue our medical insurance the same day we are laid off (I am pretty sure I am gone, just my gut feeling)?

Does anyone know many #gold coins #COBRA is going to cost me per month and if I need to insure my whole family?

And does COBRA cover medical insurance only, or vision and dental insurance as well?

As mentioned, COBRA is extremely expensive. Call or email Healthcare.gov for insurance, and pray the Republican majority House and Senate don't completely pull the rug out from under your Obamacare safety net. And call you Rep and Senators too. 202-224-3121 and ask them what they can do for you now that they are determined to destroy Obamacare which you could possibly afford.

Cobra insurance is extremely expensive and not affordable at all. The best thing to do is call the marketplace 18003182596 and see if you can get a subsidy or even apply for medicaid if applicable. Start searching for options if you really need insurance or if yiu get a new job they may offer it as well. Remember there are qualifying events that can get you coverage through the marketplace but you do have like 30 days after you lose coverage to apply or you will be sol till next year.
