Ask anyone who is forced by their insurance company to purchase specialty medications mail-order from Express Scripts/Accredo - a company that is so incompetent that many people actually run out of meds waiting for them to find a fax from the MD, requiring multiple redundant scripts from doctors, transferring calls,waiting weeks to fill a prescription. The company is a NIGHTMARE all on its own, more so when combined with the requirements of the insurance industry - once a "Non-Profit" service - but once it was allowed to go public and have shareholders it became a greed-driven industry. When profit determines how and how much health care is provided to a consumer, then IT BECOMES EQUIVALENT TO THE DEATH PANELS the Republicans said were going to emerge because of the ACA. People DIE as others profit.<br /><br />Health Care is too complicated: Ask anyone who must deal with state assistance programs that intersect with insurance company coverage. Ask anyone who has been canceled because the insurance company did not credit their payments properly.<br /><br />OH, unless you have the top of the line insurance like members of Congress.<br /><br />Don't get me started. (You already did) Health Care and INSURANCE push my buttons like nothing else.Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04058312079036935995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-84695737977116339102015-05-21T07:38:12.338-04:002015-05-21T07:38:12.338-04:00So, bizarre.
