The Boeing Co. has cut health care coverage for 33,000 of its workers and their families as machinists union strikes continue to halt production in the Pacific Northwest. The post 33,000 Boeing workers lose health care coverage appeared first on FreightWaves.
The first thing we need to do to fix healthcare in this country is to decouple health insurance from our jobs. If you lose your job you should not lose your health benefits. And no, cobra is not a substitute.
Cobra is asptly named. Bunch of fucking snakes.
$680 fuckin dollars while I’m unemployed, per month??? Get da fuck outta heah
After I was laid off it was offer to me at 750 a month while unemployment is 400 and barely covered my bills. I needed health insurance still Don’t have it and can’t see my doctor.
That’s a terrible situation, I hope you find a positive resolution sooner than later 🫤
At least it’s retroactive (unless that changed too). You can decide to pay if you have a big enough medical issue
Cobra sucks. “hey you have no income now because you were laid off, want to pay $850/month to continue your health insurance?”
