Do we dare discuss the Supreme Court decision re: Healthcare

[Lady's Human]

But ObamaCare will remedy all that and more!

If you are one of the next 30 callers, we'll cover the next visit for free, just pay a co-pay and any materials, paste, labels and S&H.

----------------

Again, you are charged on an average, whether or not they use all the supplies the insurance is billed for.

But why are we going to take away THEIR cut of the pie?

Richard, an allergy test kit is routinely used en toto, especially on the initial visit. The issue is that the office visit is covered, but the supplies used in the covered office visit are part of the annual deductible, despite the insurance plan claiming to cover all testing.

Okay, it's an allergy test, so it's covered (the brochure says all testing is covered).

WRONG.......the test is covered......the materials aren't, in which case the
testing isn't covered (without the materials, there's no damned test, boys and girls).

Parse it however the hell you want to, but a lie is a lie.

Why are you yelling at me?

------------------

They get you coming and going.

They charge the insurance for the 'test'.

You figure that any and all materials would be covered....but that is the way they screw you.

Blame it on DRGS...

The prez thinks that by giving EVERYONE insurance, or forcing EVERYONE to buy insurance, it will solve all the problems.

It's like having a car that gets 7 miles to a gallon, giving it a wash and polish, then claiming it will get better gas mileage.

The whole system has to be reworked - and that isn't going to happen until they get take the bull by the horns -
And that's hard when you try to take the bull by the feces.

Same thing happened to me when I was referred to a allergist by my primary care doctor. The test itself was 600.00.
My Insurer refused to pay at first, saying it wasn't covered. Then they said the allergist wasn't part of the network and
he wasn't covered.

In the end my Insurer paid all of the bill when I reminded them that THEY were the ones who referred me to the specialist. (an error on their part)
I hate dealing with Insurance companies.

Wha-wha-what?


Talk about out-of-pocket-costs?

Four more years!!!!!!! That should fix EVERYTHING wrong with HealthCare.

Gov. Romney is a complete tool.

The Republicans couldn't have chosen a worse candidate is it had been scripted as a bad political comedy.

ABout the only thing he "fixed" in Massachusetts was the state budget....sort of......he screwed every municipality in the state in the process and forced cities and towns to jack property taxes, but he "fixed" the state budget.

I've said it once, I'll say it again: The man is a used car salesman with a billion dollar bankroll.

I gotcha......I don't care for either, either.

But the lamest, moronic idea is that HC will be 'reformed' by stupid men who have no idea as to how it needs to be reformed.

I do not know everything about HC, but I know enough to say that the whole system is broken and promising reforms by putting "HC within everyone's reach" is just blowing smoke up everyone's rear.

Perhaps then, instead of stupid men...some smart women ought to be in charge of fixing it.

Kidding aside "stupid men" is the sort of generalized ad hominem comment that stands in the way of getting things done.

That's funny. That's exactly how he comes across to me.

A used car salesman or a community organizer that is more community than organization.

I hope that people are ready for change.



Please re-elect President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho.

I have to admit that if the legislature was populated with like-minded people that are interested in running the country, President Obama would be very effective. However, we have several agenda driven politicians on all sides that remind me of a Kipling quote.
