Millions upon millions of Americans are going without healthcare (including yours truly), the middle class is shrinking more everyday and we're still trying to get out of sticky situations imposed upon us from over 10 years ago, but please let's spend our time and resources on this fruitless endeavor.
It's about the only thing they can do in Washington nowadays, is fruitless endeavors.
You're not missing anything from Obamacare, unless you need pills. I have the so called gold package, and that's all it actually provides. Maybe yours will provide more?
I've been waiting over 2 months now for an approval from the insurance company (United Health Care) from x-rays that were sent to them on 5/30/2014. The only thing I got was a letter the other day stating something along the lines of they weren't paying because of some code issue with how the doctor billed it. Apparently the doctor used the same billing code for a preliminary procedure and the x-rays. The doctor's office showed me that's how they were instructed to fill out the form. Still no word from the insurance company.
What do I have to do, upgrade to the platinum package? (South Park joke)
It's a complete waste of money. And forget about the so called medicaid expansion (NJ Family Care as it's called in NJ as setup by the state). I have an adult autistic brother who has that ***, and it does the same thing, pays for pills, makes you wait endless for anything beyond that and never approves anything. Everything eventually gets billed to Medicare as Horizon (still considered medicaid with a new name under an HMO) *** up everything they put their hands on.
I've yet to hear from any family or friends about anything good with this new healthcare. But this is only limited to the following states: NJ, WI, CO, and CA.
Anecdotal stories aside, hopefully it'll work out for you.
