We have the worst health insurance ever and my daughter is now facing a significant health issue. I know some coworkers have had similar troubles. Is there a way to petition for better benefits, do a signed letter, etc? It's a medium sized company, so I can't imagine they have their hands tied too much, I think they are just tight fisted.

Consider looking into state subsidized insurance in the mean time.
You'd need to make ALOT of noise for a company to consider changing their benefits, and even if they do I think it probably takes over a year to go into effect coz the may wait until the open enrollment period

If you’re unable to change your health insurance although work, try to reach out to her medical team to write a letter of medical necessity to your insurance company for any services or equipment she needs that they’re not wanting to cover. Hope this helps.

I was supportive of Lori when this virus first started but her actions since have dwindled my support of her.

I know everything doesn’t fall on her shoulder but things haven’t been great as of late. Hopefully they figure out something soon.
