Just a vent here about Blue Cross and Blue shield.
I am a federal employee and now we have this new equalization of benefits. Now my medchecks cost me 37.00 a visit. Last year same visit cost 4.72. I know how lucky that was. Now BC/BS claims that medchecks are an "other" service. They admit on the phone that they are wrong and that my medchecks should be treated like all other office visits witha 15 dollar copay. Does bc/bs just fix there own mistake. NO WAY. They say "write a letter asking us to appeal our decision and then when we again disallow coverage you can appeal it to BC/BS HQ who can overturn our decision."
I JUST FREAKING GIVE UP. Last thing I need is to fight that crap. All it does is piss me off.
My pdoc and his billing office were useless.
Screw em all. I can handle being manic i just dont like to miss my beauty sleep.haha
