My mother in law, who is 81, recently had open heart surgery and is in rehab. One of her children recently received notification that her health care policy (her primary insurer, through her late husband's employement) had been cancelled. Is this legal? What is the recourse?
What was the reason given for them canceling it? Were the premiums being maintained through the late husband's previous employer or did they change who was handling the retirement plan which may have caused a mistake in paying the premiums?
Medicare is not always primary when there is an other insurance.
