    Could you imagine universal healthcare that’s probably cheaper than the insurance you pay now?

    Not having to worry about who’s in and out of network?

    The horror!

      The stress of not knowing if you have enough change to pay for the hospital’s parking is unbearable. Worse, can you imagine the danger of living a life without the financial stress of breaking a leg?

      Not having to wait 45 business days to get your out-of-network claims reimbursed just for your insurance to tell you they never got the claim and please resubmit. Which I’ve done. At the end of September it will be another 45 business days. This is for a weekly therapy that I expect to be covered 80% because it’s out of network but maybe it isn’t because fuck me and I won’t know until I’ve been going for at least 15 weeks.

      Someone in my family has medicare and it is absolutely fantastic insurance. You automatically get the very best prices on everything, because all the profiteering charges are automatically removed. I live in a large city and every doctor I’ve ever dealt with takes it because there are no insurance hassles, either for the doctor or for you. I’m talking about real medicare and not medicare disadvantage.
