Yelp gives Anthem Blue Cross one star with 111 reviews.

I'd better get back to the health insurance drawing board.

I have Anthem Blue Cross on a group employee plan.

So far they have been good. But I have had no claims submitted so far.

I have Anthem Blue Cross on a group employee plan.

So far they have been good. But I have had no MAJOR claims submitted so far. All smaller claims except for one have been paid.

I have Anthem Blue Cross on a group employee plan.

I had a heart attack with three stints inserted a little over a year ago...

I paid just over $5k and they paid everything else. There were no battles over any of it.

I can’t complain.

They’re all good until you have to submit a claim.

Auto insurance and homeowners, too.

Well, I was diagnosed with a genetic disease last year that has so far cost them $130k (and counting) through my employer’s plan.

My company was acquired a month ago though and hearing this gives me the chills... I know at only the low 6 figures I’m still probably considered a small fry but I’m sure I’m on someone’s radar...

If you have a serious illness, you will still not be covered. I said you will because I knew I could fool you low information voters. And I did - B. Obama
