How can we stop PPO giants fr/fraud ie United Health, Ingenix when all do it – Cigna, Aetna, Blue Cross Shield?
TomW asked:
Is any group in California working on closing them down or reforming laws to make them stop getting away with highway robbery of premiums to pay their top execs and avoid paying insurance claims for necessary health care? What’s up with that?
Call youir local FBI field office and the State Insurance Commissioner, State Managed Care Director, Attorney General and the Governor’s office and ask. They should be. Those health plans are nothing but rips offs. They cover less than they did 10 years ago and reimburse less than they did on surgeries 10- years ago.
I know, I just had the same foot surgery on one side as I did in 1996!
Blue Cross paid 4,216 in 1996 and 1475 for the other foot in Jan 2009!!!!
