Worthless medical insurance

[Blackcat99]

:angryfire At my last job I had a cancerous mole removed from my back. My claim was denied because they felt it wasn't necessary???? Anyway, after hours of combat and unending paperwork I finally got a little money to help pay for the surgical removal of it. I am wondering if anyone knows of good hospitals or good nursing homes etc. that actually provide good medical coverage for their employees. Thanks

Thanks everyone for your very informative information about medical insurance. I am going to have to memorize all of it so I can survive these insurance companies.

What part of the country are you looking for?

I had a great INS co while in denver. Here, it is another story. I dislocated my knee 1 yr ago and had to go to the OR for open reduction. I had sheared off part of my patella and my ins co just sent me a letter stating they finally sent payment to the doc and hosp. A whole yr!!!

It took my insurance company THREE years to pay a claim. I wish I was making this up....Now, they have this new thing with my mail order RX plan where my doctor has to call the company with my medical history, some freakin' board of boneheads has to "review" my case and then they determine if I am eligible for coverage of my prescriptions, or if my doctor has to prescribe something else!
