What is the name of your state? Massachusetts
I worked at acompany for 4 years. I was sent out on disability for my back. I cannot stand, or sit for any longer than 15-20 min. at a time.My original paperwork submitted was for short term disability. I was never told that I was on fmla. After 12 weeks I was terminated. My medical coverage ceased. My claim was approved and benefits paid. I could not afford the cobra because it took 15 weeks to be paid any money. I applied for MassHealth and was denied until I can produce $3,636 in unpaid medical benefits. I am also in desperate need of a hysterectomy due to a large cyst on my ovary and fibroid tumors. My disability benefits have been stopped for lack of seeing a specialist. I had been paying cash to see my primary and documentation of my limitations have been sent. How can I be expected to generate bills if I cannot be seen due to no coverage? At this point I have no income. Also I was fired after 12 weeks when another employee went on disability and his job was held for 9 1/2 mths. and has returned to work. Can you advise. If more info needed I will supply.
