Geeze—this is unreal!
Making you RACIST if you object.
Dr. Kevorkian Jr. by chance.. *-?
do you get any preremptory challenges,
it’s always nice to know something about
their innnnterrrests ,
(welcome to the world of the ‘new’ normal)
Strange world indeed.
What a freaking nightmare.
go to your local newspaper...see if they will publish it with your story.
No, Swamp, if you like your doctor you can keep him.
This is terrible for you. One route to take is to get in touch with your doctor and see if he can ask to get on that plan. No one knows the answers to questions because this is all new territory. Maybe he can get on it but you won’t know until you ask to find out what is happening on the doctor’s side. Your best outcome is to get the doctor on there.
Don’t blow up at the insurance company until you find your doctor can’t get on that plan. If he can’t, then blow up at the insurance company. If you blow up at them first, they will likely get ticked off and then wouldn’t put the doctor on there just for spite.
Let me know what happens and good luck.
"...you can keep your sox on"
TOTALITARIANCARE: Dr. Kevorkian, Dr. Gosnell, Dr. Mengele? What incentives will the totalitarian doctors have to heal you vs. terminating you? Hippocratic oath vs Hypocrisy oath. Faceless bureaucrats make the call. The doctor becomes the tool for totalitarians.
Thanks for posting, ‘SNIPER. Keep us informed.
(doctors used to make house calls. I seemed to recall my dad paying the doctor $6 for one particular visit)
This is how it was meant to be, the battle is between you and an insurance company, not between you and the government.
I wish you the very best.
If you, or others, lose this battle, it will most likely be the evil insurance company getting the blame.
I sincerely wish you the best in this struggle, swampsniper.
F#ck every last sonofawhore who voted for more socialism, and to ruin our healthcare system for the purpose of buying the votes of lazy, pathetic, unproductive losers. Obamacare is nothing but MORE wealth redistribution. Every last ‘yes’ vote belongs behind bars with Obama.
Are you on Obamacare? Is it a Medicare Advantage plan? HMO?
Everyone in my somewhat multicultural extended family has been assigned a primary provider of roughly the same skin color as the patient — just like Sebelius promised. To be sure, I am just a touch darker than my Latina PA, but others are nearly spot-on, especially for the Asian relatives. Really amazing.
wait til women find out hey have to give up their OB\GYN....
This story is going to be huge Jan 1st, when huge numbers of people find out they can’t see their regular doctor, or even hospital.
Careful...
You moved to Cuba?
Sadly, you are going to start seeing guilds for Dr.’s whose sole purpose is ti increase their opportunities and become a barrier for other Dr.’s
Wait until you find about your deductible and how that works.
That sucks. My condolences.
I will say, however, that this has happened to me more than once over the last twenty years. I hate it when my doctor that I like jumps ship from my insurance. But it has happened to me before, long before Obamacare.
I’m sure Dr. Purakayastha was top of his class in Bangladesh.
