Anytime I’ve had insurance in the past and I’ve left that job, my health insurance usually is terminated retroactively. I’m not 100% sure when my employment status changed, as I was taking extended time off to help my mom during health concerns. My mom eventually passed, and I decided to let my manager know I wouldn’t be able to cope with two jobs following her loss. He kept me active in the system for a bit, as some of my benefits were still active and working (spotify, employee discount, etc.) When these other benefits stopped, I assumed this meant my health insurance coverage would also be terminated. However, I was just charged for the full amount of my coverage (the company portion that is usually contributed was not in this particular charge). Is this normal? If I had known my coverage would continue, I would have cancelled before the next billing date. I have coverage with my current job and did not expect to be paying into two policies like this. Is this charge disputable, or am I going to have to take the financial hit?
