CA - I was laid off on April 8, 2002. My husband, who was covered under my insurance policy, went to the doctor on April 11. On April 15, I received a call from the doctor's office stating that my insurance was canceled on April 1, which meant we'd be billed for that past office visit and my husband would not be eligible for the test they had set up for him. I didn't mind hearing I'd have to pay as much as hearing my insurance was canceled before I was laid off. On May 6, I received a note stating that I can sign up for Cobra, and in fact, my insurance had been canceled on April 1. I'd like to know if it was legal for my employer to cancel my insurance 7 days before I was laid off without notifying me. Thanks.
