UHC did follow through, Medicare had the prescription drug company listed as an insurance company and Verizon did not cancel that portion of her coverage. UHC didn't get the cancellation from medicare until last week. Everyone is still working on it but she isn't optomistic.
Verizon won't talk to her since they have her not part of their plan plus getting through to anyone that can do anything is impossible. Since my wife is in pretty good health she should be ok until October.
