Who else is annoyed at all the time and money spent on dealing with insurance companies, medical bills, high deductables, coinsurance, copayments, charges above "reasonable and customary", incorrect charges, etc, etc, etc.

I know I AM!!!!

You can definitely say that again. And again...and again. On the bright side, I'm very thankful that I have good insurance, and that I have access to good medical care. Well, the care was much better when I lived in Pittsburgh, but that's a whole 'nother story. Razzer

I have Aetna insurance. And, while they pay for a lot, they also screw up a lot too. My wife has basically done their job for them to straighten out my med bills on numerous occasions. It is such a pain in the ass on top of the pain in my ass after takedown. Ha ha ha!

I also have Aetna, agree about them messing up from time to time. Seems like people in medical insurance have a tough job and most of them seem to not like what they do...translates into nasty phone conversations and slow member service.
Should we also throw in people who handle disabilty claims? Seems like I have to do all the leg work between them and my doctor/employer.
