Hey all. Need some opinions on what I should do.
So today my health insurance policy got canceled automatically, which I didn’t know could happen, due to my payments lapsing.
I have 2 options, I can resume my old policy if I’m able to make a big enough or full payment (which I may not be able to meet).
2nd option is to take out a new policy within the next month.
There’s obviously differences between my old policy and the new policy depending on what I pick for extras and whatnot but I’m not sure what I’m losing out on and how much difference the limit are.
If I retain my old policy it could really strain my finances for awhile and if I’m able to do it at all.
If I don’t I won’t have to pay for the period I wasn’t covered and I’d be on a new plan and have to restart waiting periods.
In my life time I’ve only claimed on dental, optical and some prescription meds but not much else if that helps.
Happy to take some opinions about this, I have some time to deal with this, by end of next week.
