COBRA costs more than my rent, what did you do?, paralegal here

The COBRA quote for my family is $400 a month and I do not know how to afford it. My spouse has a chronic condition, so dropping coverage feels risky.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

A quick call to the plan's member line cleared up two things for us that the letter did not.
