Each year chett's ins gets worse and worse and worse! He works for KU Hospital, you would think we would get good benefits! He pays $650 a month and this year my co pay went up another $5 (it started at $0, then went to $5 and now it is $10) not horrible but I still have to use KU hospitals. I called last week to make an appt with the dermatologist and the first available appt is June 13th. My Psychologist quit seeing patients and I had to get a new one, they gave me a student that didn't speak fluent English. I was a suicidal, depressed, anxiety ridden, hair pulling, mess - i met with her and then immediately met with her attending to go over everything i just went over with her.... I left worse than I was. I got on the internet to find a new dr and the procedure to make an appt was to schedule an appt over the computer. It has been a week and no one has called.
The ins also no longer covers chiropractors, my prescription fees have gone up. Me dental is horrible, although that is Delta Dental not necessarily through KU. Oh and we don't have a choice anymore what plan we want through Blue Cross and Blue Shield - everyone gets the same one now.
I am so fucking pissed I could cry. I have no one to call and yell at, can't yell at blue Cross and Blue shield, what can they do? I could call and yell at KU but they are Chett's boss and are giving everyone the same treatment! We pay more in every month than we did last year, pay more in co-pays, pay more for prescriptions, not to mention I have to see KU doctors that either I have to wait 6 months to see or see a resident! It is all so BULLSHIT!!!!!!!
Not to mention the fact that I have been bleeding for 12 or so days and the bleeding just gets worse because I am transitioning to continuous birth control pills versus taking a pack, have a period, take a pack, have a period...So, I am in a GREAT mood!
Oh, and I am on a diet! What do I want right now? a Donut! a Donut and Pepsi to make me feel better about KU raping me and my vagina. But no, having roasted brussel sprouts. Did I mention I might cry?
On a side note, I am calling our ins tomorrow to see what I can do to find a psychologist/therapist not affiliated with KU, even if I have to pay more, it would be great to have one closer and one that I loved and who loved me. Either way....my Mom is coming Thursday and this is going to be an amazing week. Donut or no donut. Fuck KU.
Good Daya To You! I Said, Good Day!!!

Insurance prices suck! They have you by the short hairs so there's nothing you can do. I have BCBS too and mine went up and I only used it ONCE in '11.
It's frustrating, just like the ever increasing gas prices, but better than not having insurance, I guess.
