How long ago did you lose your job---the cobra law alows you to keep your insurence after u leave/loose a job granted it costs a lil more--might be worth lookin into....good luck!

Dottie: It is federally mandated that an employer with over 75 employees must provide COBRA coverage for 18 months to those employees that leave for any reason. The premiums are regulated as well; you cannot be charged more than the group rate plus a small administrative fee. Contact your employer! That coverage may indeed be better and cheaper than anything you could find individually.
