I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right forum, but I hope someone can answer my question. My husband's company has just decided to change their group medical insurance, because there were some high claims last year, and I guess they just don't want to pay more.
Our co-pay now went up by $10 and instead of our insurance covering Participating Prov. at 100%, we now have to pay 20% ourselves. We have a child with an existing brain cndition, (hydro-cephalus) - she is 7 months old and was diagnosed with it after birth. She will need treatment for this for the rest of her life. Our insur. comp was great covering brain surgeries, hospitilization, etc... Now we have to pay up to $4000 a year ourselves which is detrimental to us and we cannot afford it.
Can my husband's company change his medical benefits just like that, and if they can, what are our options?
Thanks for taking the time to read this and reply.
