Once I get one. Lupine Send a noteboard - 11/02/2010 03:36:19 PM
Most doctors have people on staff who deal with insurance companies on a daily basis and they should be willing to help you. I know mine is a lot more help then the insurance company and they have even helped me fight the insurance company when they didn't want to cover something.

Yeah, it's very pleasant dealing with people aren't trying to screw you, which (as a general rule), most health care people aren't. If so, they probably picked the wrong profession. :P

I have a medical costs question too... Lupine - 10/02/2010 03:08:14 PM 928 Views
If you look at your policy Sareitha Sedai - 10/02/2010 03:27:15 PM 585 Views
I'm all for being a control freak when I can. Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:07:37 PM 556 Views
One other thing you should be aware of Sareitha Sedai - 11/02/2010 03:25:07 PM 556 Views
Yes... that's very useful information. Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:46:17 PM 389 Views
I was afraid of that Sareitha Sedai - 11/02/2010 03:52:49 PM 514 Views
You might want to call your insurer and talk to them about who to see. Joel - 10/02/2010 03:34:53 PM 519 Views
Do you think an actual person would have better referrals than the website? Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:14:01 PM 568 Views
I do, and sorry for the delay. Joel - 15/02/2010 02:11:55 PM 516 Views
I don't think we'll be able to do you much good. nossy - 10/02/2010 03:36:57 PM 515 Views
For CU, that list seems to be really outdated. Lupine - 11/02/2010 12:13:06 AM 478 Views
I didn't read all the replies before I posted mine.Woops. *NM* Avendesora - 11/02/2010 01:54:59 AM 253 Views
and as far as the frustrating part... Avendesora - 11/02/2010 01:58:39 AM 352 Views
Hmmm. Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:17:50 PM 350 Views
Most doctor's offices Sareitha Sedai - 11/02/2010 03:32:55 PM 530 Views
But it's embarrassing. <whine> Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:50:40 PM 461 Views
I'm sure Sareitha Sedai - 11/02/2010 03:58:29 PM 469 Views
Sareitha pretty much covered it! Avendesora - 11/02/2010 04:53:25 PM 522 Views
Mine was a little as well. nossy - 11/02/2010 12:46:45 PM 506 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 353 Views
I just know a worried person should not pay a damn cent... ironclad - 10/02/2010 03:53:19 PM 539 Views
This is frustrating. (Meant as reply to main thread/everyone.) Lupine - 10/02/2010 04:05:57 PM 482 Views
Oops, I replied in the wrong place. Lupine - 10/02/2010 04:07:15 PM 375 Views

Why? Should I not have to think about how to pay for my dinner tonight? LiterateDog - 10/02/2010 04:23:31 PM 504 Views
The Dole or hardship funds should help people who can't afford food Mark - 10/02/2010 04:28:49 PM 382 Views
I agree, the needy should be helped. LiterateDog - 10/02/2010 04:32:45 PM 470 Views
I don't agree with your characterization of commonly proposed healthcare solutions. Dreaded Anomaly - 10/02/2010 04:42:06 PM 514 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 579 Views
<3 damookster - 10/02/2010 05:06:29 PM 391 Views
As a response to Jens' point, it works, but he used very general language. Dreaded Anomaly - 10/02/2010 07:37:20 PM 347 Views
Furnace? Health? Erm... ironclad - 10/02/2010 08:04:03 PM 384 Views
no damookster - 10/02/2010 08:40:12 PM 373 Views
I didn't like the example ironclad - 10/02/2010 08:46:24 PM 477 Views
that's why I pay for health insurance *NM* damookster - 10/02/2010 08:58:06 PM 153 Views
So do we? *NM* Legolas - 10/02/2010 09:13:28 PM 247 Views
exactly damookster - 10/02/2010 09:22:14 PM 420 Views
Precisely ironclad - 10/02/2010 08:00:39 PM 346 Views
There are several good reasons for that. Legolas - 10/02/2010 04:48:59 PM 527 Views
I see no problem with the state paying the vast majority of medical costs Mark - 10/02/2010 04:53:57 PM 580 Views
I understand you're not being serious, but... Dreaded Anomaly - 10/02/2010 04:37:12 PM 372 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 165 Views
I've never been sent a thing from them... Lupine - 10/02/2010 04:28:57 PM 503 Views
Do you or your parents hold the policy? LiterateDog - 10/02/2010 04:35:00 PM 354 Views
My parents do. Lupine - 10/02/2010 04:44:29 PM 537 Views

Thank you! Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:25:42 PM 343 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 443 Views
My experience with them has been generally positive too. Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:27:50 PM 348 Views
In my case... Avendesora - 11/02/2010 01:53:32 AM 394 Views
*nods* Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:32:44 PM 466 Views
I have no idea regarding insurance smaug - 11/02/2010 10:32:11 AM 497 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 249 Views
Your doctor's office should be able to answer most questions for you random thoughts - 11/02/2010 02:36:10 PM 337 Views
Once I get one. Lupine - 11/02/2010 03:36:19 PM 349 Views
