Time to Vent.... Insurance....

I HATE MEDICAL INSURANCE!!!

It is time again to pick what worthless insurance you want to pay for for the next year and just how much out of pocket you can get stuck with b/c of their bullshit excuses. We've decided that right now Eric's is not good.

I called my informational number to find out about what my insurance would cover if I took it. Well, it only covers up to the diagnosis of infertility. So no drugs, no in verto, NOTHING. That is really a let down.

Eric's insurance is the same way.

What is up with these people? They say, "Yep, we'll pay for you to find out you are infertile, but after that, f*ck you, you're on your own!" (I need that smiley with steam blowing out his ears!)

That's like paying for you to find out if you have a cold, but you're stuck getting the medicine. Write them a thank you note for not doing a god damn thing.

Since I don't deal with health insurance I have decided not to be offended by your insurance comment.

Anyway, that really does suck! I think health care costs so much that some companies try to go the cheap way out and not cover as much as possible. Sometimes it doesn't make since. For example, plans that will cover Viagra, but not birth control.

OK. I guess I misspoke when I said any insurance. I don't have any problems with any other insurance besides medical. So far (knock on wood) the other insurances have been good to us. Of course we haven't had anything catastrophic happen either. You are totally right though they always take the cheap way out. And on their side, I'm sure there are a lot of people that try to screw them, too.
