I live in Utah, & the insurance company this is about is IHC (Intermountain Health Care). I recently lost my job with a company I'd been with for just over two years. My last day of work was 3/28/08. That following Monday, 3/31/08, I refilled two of my prescriptions at the pharmacy, only paying my co-pays. I thought that since I had paid my full monthly premium for March, & that since the insurance company approved both medications, that everything was fine. Then just 3 days ago I get a letter from the insurance company saying I was not elligible for the coverage & that I now owe them the full cost of the two medications. Is this legal? I thought if I had paid my full monthly premium, that I was covered until the last day of the month that I last worked in. Is there anything I can do about this? Where can I go / look for info to help me out?
Thanks!!
