Here's a good one [View all]
I just received 9 letters from all my docs and hospitals that I am a part of. Me and my wife are currently with Aetna, Medicare Advantage. It was quite a good deal 2 years ago. Now it's a friggin mess. Last year (this years coverage), Aetna made many changes, none of which were advantageous to the consumer. Now they are going to drop BJC Health Care, one of the top 10 healthcare systems in the country? I wish I could put the blame on Trump, but am unable to at this point. I'm sure it will all come out soon, as this will make big news.
I just called my PCP to find out which insurance companies they do accept. A BJC representative said they are still in negotiations with Aetna, and to stay tuned. If that is the case, why wasn't there any indication of this in the 9 letters? Why didn't my hospital and all my docs notify me?
This is all we need. Having a bunch of seniors freaking out trying to find their next carrier.
And yet another reason to improve medicare, and allow everyone to access it. Not in my lifetime.
It is unbelievable that I am even typing this, being from the richest country on the planet.
Do you think Trump is going to step up to the plate and get this resolved? Think again. It's tee time.
God help us all, as our country continues to go down the shitter.
