Can I have some get-well purrs please?

I got 'asthma' the other night out of the blue and I still feel
lousy... John's been on the phone this morning trying to get our
health insurance ducks in a row so that I can go to a doctor if I
don't feel better by Monday, because they screwed up our insurance -
we were supposed to qualify for it a month ago but we still hadn't
heard anything!)
I also found out that the last insurance company never paid my bill
when I went to the doctor back in May... they're still trying to
squirm out of it, even though it was just a regular office visit and I
didn't even get any prescriptions or have any tests aside from
blood-pressure and blood-sugar levels. Scumbags So I can't go back
to that doctor again unless we pay that bill ourselves and we don't
have the cash. Now I feel guilty that I ever went in the first
place...

Oh, Karen. This really pushes my buttons. I am so tired of having to
spend *hours* on the telephone, and argue to get them to pay just what
is rightfully their obligation. I don't have any magic advice, I so
wish I did because I understand your frustration. Our insurance company
makes *way* too many "mistakes." I truly think they are calculated, and
deliberate "mistakes".
I do know that you can tell the doctor's office the old bill is under
dispute, and they will give you a little more time.

Ugh. No one should ever have to be in a situation where they don't
know if they can go to the doctor because of insurance =/ Especially
when you're supposed to be covered!

Go to the ER and let the gov't pay if you're that poor.

Whenever I hear this I am so glad that I live in the UK and don't have
to deal with health insurance. Apart from anything else the other good
thing about the NHS is that they employ me!!!!

Purrs for you to feel better on the way

Purrs, prayers, and a little be careful advice OK?

There are worse things that insurance problems, and untreated Asthma can
kill. It you have a severe attack, have someone get your butt to the ER
ASAP. The first thing you tell them at the desk is "I can't breathe"

Not I think I have asthma, not I'm having a little trouble breathing.

And best wishes and purrs to get the insurance straight too.

Jo

Purrs on the way.
