I forgot to notify my health insurance agent that I had moved to Lincoln until 3 months after I had moved, so I got that taken care of awhile back. Just called him up, changed the address, endo story, right? Well, I get a letter in the mail saying that I since I moved to Lincoln my premiums should have been less so I overpaid during that gap and they sent me a check.

Fast forward to January 1, my premium didn't come out of my account like it normally does. I figured that maybe part of my overpayment meant that next month's had already come out. When I over-pay on my other bills, usually that's what they do, so I figured this was the same.

Today I look at my account and it hadn't come out for Feb either, so I called the company, and sure enough, my account had been cancelled. I've been health-insurance-less since December. My agent misunderstood and made the change of address into a cancellation, thinking I'd get new insurance in Lincoln.

So, for the next two weeks (renewal paperwork processing), I'm one of those uninsured slobs we all feel sorry for.
