Employed as a cosmetology educator for a franchise school. Payroll deductions made for my portion of health insurance contribution. Had to use emergency room on June 6. I was let go a week later. This week I get notice from my health insurance provider that our premium payment for June was never paid by my company so our insurance lapsed without our knowledge. Both the hospital and health insurance are adding me bills for thousands of dollars even though I was getting deducted for my portion of the premium. Do I need to contact a lawyer or should I just contact health insurance and explain.
 
Before you do either of those, you contact your former employer. It is entirely possible that they will be making a late payment and the coverage will be reinstated.
 
Agree with contacting your former employer & seeing what's up. Start there.
