Getting laid off with just two months of insurance coverage for serverance deal made me run to my family doctor for a referral for the bladder specialist before my two months of health insurance coverage would end. I knew I had a infection in my bladder that just kept coming back after getting antibotics to end it. My employer's generosity saved my life! I could have neglected to get medical attention due to my unemployment like most unemployed people do everyday. That's why I am advocating this bill to all my friends and family and even casual friends here on Facebook. Share this with others to save lives!
