I graduated in college in May, and have been on my dad’s insurance the whole time I was there. My dad has awesome insurance that make it where I never had a pay an office visit co-pay, and lots of other awesome things like. That helped me out a lot in college, just taking care of a few more fees that I didn’t have the money for. So, when I graduated, the insurance company kicked me off. They kept me on it all through the summer, but when September rolled around they sent a letter requesting that I give them my schedule to prove I was a full time student, which I couldn’t do. So, off I was. I felt uncomfortable not having health insurance, I made it about two months before I freaked out and had to get on some kind of plan. I told my mom I was going to figure it out, and she decided to call my dad’s company and see how much it would be to just go ahead and keep me covered on that. It was going to be ridiculous, but, they told her that I had actually be covered by the insurance up until the day before she called. That really creeped me out, because that was the day I had had enough and decided that I was going to get it the next day no matter what. It made me feel better to know that I was covered all that time, but I wish I had actually known and destressed a bit. Now, I’ve got insurance going on my own plan that isn’t too expensive, and I feel a whole lot better about the whole situation.
