Just what I needed, lol. I've had a kidney replaced and was on dialysis for three years. Cigna sent me an $8,000 bill, likely for a dialysis session from 2019..when I was fully insured by them from my previous employer(not to mention Medicare). I was wondering why they're trying to bill me for ONE session when I've been getting it 3 days a week for years until my transplant. ... Copied to Clipboard!

When I was hospitalized in December of 2019 (pancreatitis caused by gallstones blocking my bile duct) I was terrified of what it was going to cost me. Every day I was in my room there was more and more money I couldn't afford to pay. In the end my insurance covered everything except for the amount that got me to my "out of pocket limit" which for a working class person like me was still $5.5k and still an unmanageable amount of debt I had wished I died instead, but on my second to last day of my stay someone from the financial department of the hospital discussed financial aid possibilities with me. I ended up only owing $500 which was to be honest still a lot to deal with, but christ it was far better than what I'd get otherwise Insurance companies are the reason those kinds of things cost so fucking much. We need state funded medical care several yesterdays ago. It's not a sustainable system as is --- And I'd never do it but it's not a joke; I can't tell the difference when I'm all alone // https://www.last.fm/user/crushedaria ~[she/her|they/them]~ ...

I broke my ankle when I had no insurance and got a $63k hospital bill. I told them I'd never be able to pay it and they let me sign up for free state insurance and billed it retroactively so they'd at least get something. --- I could see you, but I couldn't hear you You were holding your hat in the breeze Turning away from me In this moment you were stolen... ...

Insurance is a joke. I can see my doctor for a routine appointment (which I have every three months) and pay a cash price of $94 if I pay same day. That exact same visit with my insurance is about $250, plus what I'm paying for insurance every month. Even if I deferred and didn't pay same day it would be $150, a full $100 less. With Good Rx I get my medicine almost as cheap as my insurance price (again, not including what I pay for insurance). I spend $120/month on my medication. Would be maybe $130 without insurance.

Man...I work for the biggest healthcare company and recently got promoted to post pay. Meaning reviewing claims flagged by the "system" to see if we need to do recoupment of money. Some recoupments are legitimate due to billing errors, but some are literally "pulled out the ass" due to guidelines rules they keep changing. Claims that are ok would be recouped if you follow the guidelines, but since we have basic coding knowledge we go over the rules and give them a pass for which we might get errors. Im making more money than ever and at the same time feeling remorse over what I do. The root of all this is wallstreet and creating shareholder value due to the endless growth thats expected.
