Ray... I've heard good and bad about the Medicare Advantage plans. Everyone has a different experiences. With so many variables I guess it's a lot like carving. It all boils down to personal preference. So far I'm real happy with our health care plan. It's the health care providers that I have a problem with.

This is what process has become today.... A CIRCUS! One hand doesn't know what the other hand is doing, he said, she said, send it here, then follow up for a response if they have received their documents, otherwise call a third party for confirmation and process, etc.... OMG!!! Get me out a' here!.... Eddy, God bless you, it's not you! My father recently had been put in collections, and he has been flawless his entire life! It is so disastrous the way insurance companies, hospitals, claims adjusters, medicare, Emergency services, and the like speak with eachother on cancelations, confirmations, transfers, adjustments, audits, and filings. It's, in all honesty new regulations that have surface with in the last 3 years... It just takes time to implement all these new regulation.... Unfortunately we live in a world of more and more accountability, because we either fail to get along, or we just take advantage of one another. If government didn't get in the way, we wouldn't have these problems right now. I know there will be skeptics regarding this, but you have to keep an open mind, as to how we got here.... I really believe were an already over burdened society thats way over regulated! The noose is so tight around our necks with regulations, that our vocal cords have been taken out (we have no say), our vision has been blackened out, or impared... The next tightening of the noose, will undoubtedly suffocate us, that there will be nothing left...... Take care and good luck Eddie!

Rob... Hang in their my friend. Since my last post I actually received an apology from the collections agency with verification that my account had not been forwarded to the credit bureau. Then a couple of days later I received what will have to suffice as an appology from the hospital saying that a mistake had been made and that they were looking in to it. It took over three months of constant calling and letter writing to clear our name. And while I deeply appreciate the fact that they finally did give me something in writing it did nothing to compensate me for all the worry and anxiety that it caused. And unfortuately this had nothing to do with government regulations, Obama's Healthcare Plan, changes to Medicare or any other devious motive. This was from just plain ignorance and stupidity and lack of management supervision over it's personnel.
