Do you or your parents hold the policy? LiterateDog Send a noteboard - 10/02/2010 04:35:00 PM
And I've tried to understand information about my policy from the website; for that matter I enlisted Paul's help with it when he was here, and neither of us could find anything more than very general, unhelpful stuff. Only way to get information really is to call.


If it's your parents, then they've been given your coverage data. If it's you, do they have your correct address? I've never seen anyone not get the details of their policy at least once.

In your case, unless you have insane insurance, tests and specialty care coordinated by your PCP should be covered, minus whatever the applicable copays are.

If you look at your policy Sareitha Sedai - 10/02/2010 03:27:15 PM 631 Views
I'm all for being a control freak when I can. Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:07:37 PM 603 Views
One other thing you should be aware of Sareitha Sedai - 11/02/2010 03:25:07 PM 604 Views
Yes... that's very useful information. Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:46:17 PM 440 Views
I was afraid of that Sareitha Sedai - 11/02/2010 03:52:49 PM 567 Views
You might want to call your insurer and talk to them about who to see. Joel - 10/02/2010 03:34:53 PM 570 Views
Do you think an actual person would have better referrals than the website? Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:14:01 PM 620 Views
I do, and sorry for the delay. Joel - 15/02/2010 02:11:55 PM 563 Views
I don't think we'll be able to do you much good. nossy - 10/02/2010 03:36:57 PM 566 Views
For CU, that list seems to be really outdated. Lupine - 11/02/2010 12:13:06 AM 527 Views
I didn't read all the replies before I posted mine.Woops. *NM* Avendesora - 11/02/2010 01:54:59 AM 281 Views
and as far as the frustrating part... Avendesora - 11/02/2010 01:58:39 AM 402 Views
Hmmm. Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:17:50 PM 394 Views
Most doctor's offices Sareitha Sedai - 11/02/2010 03:32:55 PM 580 Views
But it's embarrassing. <whine> Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:50:40 PM 509 Views
I'm sure Sareitha Sedai - 11/02/2010 03:58:29 PM 520 Views
Sareitha pretty much covered it! Avendesora - 11/02/2010 04:53:25 PM 578 Views
Mine was a little as well. nossy - 11/02/2010 12:46:45 PM 557 Views
It was funny, because most of them were medical-ish, but I got a bariatric center, a therapist... Lupine - 11/02/2010 02:25:03 PM 400 Views
I just know a worried person should not pay a damn cent... ironclad - 10/02/2010 03:53:19 PM 583 Views
This is frustrating. (Meant as reply to main thread/everyone.) Lupine - 10/02/2010 04:05:57 PM 527 Views

Why? Should I not have to think about how to pay for my dinner tonight? LiterateDog - 10/02/2010 04:23:31 PM 554 Views
The Dole or hardship funds should help people who can't afford food Mark - 10/02/2010 04:28:49 PM 422 Views
I agree, the needy should be helped. LiterateDog - 10/02/2010 04:32:45 PM 517 Views
I don't agree with your characterization of commonly proposed healthcare solutions. Dreaded Anomaly - 10/02/2010 04:42:06 PM 569 Views
I don't think he's mischaracterizing anything so much as responding to Jens' point directly. Sareitha Sedai - 10/02/2010 04:54:55 PM 630 Views
<3 damookster - 10/02/2010 05:06:29 PM 448 Views
As a response to Jens' point, it works, but he used very general language. Dreaded Anomaly - 10/02/2010 07:37:20 PM 392 Views
Furnace? Health? Erm... ironclad - 10/02/2010 08:04:03 PM 434 Views

I didn't like the example ironclad - 10/02/2010 08:46:24 PM 529 Views
that's why I pay for health insurance *NM* damookster - 10/02/2010 08:58:06 PM 178 Views
So do we? *NM* Legolas - 10/02/2010 09:13:28 PM 274 Views
exactly damookster - 10/02/2010 09:22:14 PM 467 Views
Precisely ironclad - 10/02/2010 08:00:39 PM 393 Views
There are several good reasons for that. Legolas - 10/02/2010 04:48:59 PM 577 Views
I see no problem with the state paying the vast majority of medical costs Mark - 10/02/2010 04:53:57 PM 630 Views
I understand you're not being serious, but... Dreaded Anomaly - 10/02/2010 04:37:12 PM 423 Views
Have you never looked at the boatloads of information that your insurer has surely sent to you? *NM* LiterateDog - 10/02/2010 04:19:09 PM 191 Views
I've never been sent a thing from them... Lupine - 10/02/2010 04:28:57 PM 550 Views
Do you or your parents hold the policy? LiterateDog - 10/02/2010 04:35:00 PM 400 Views

Thank you! Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:25:42 PM 385 Views
I believe, although I no longer am covered by Blue Cross, that most tests are covered. Ghavrel - 10/02/2010 11:28:34 PM 492 Views
My experience with them has been generally positive too. Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:27:50 PM 397 Views
In my case... Avendesora - 11/02/2010 01:53:32 AM 448 Views

I have no idea regarding insurance smaug - 11/02/2010 10:32:11 AM 539 Views
Yes, and just in general, it's good to have a GP. But they are elusive creatures. Like unicorns. *NM* Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:33:24 PM 277 Views
Your doctor's office should be able to answer most questions for you random thoughts - 11/02/2010 02:36:10 PM 386 Views
Once I get one. Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:36:19 PM 396 Views
