Well, yes, of course.

Just set about making my fall medical appointments, and turns out, new "insurance" wants me to pay $500 for a screening that the previous insurance covered. Fortunately it's one of those gratuitous "test to make sure nothing has changed" on a factor that has been stable since I've been doing these screenings.

So yeah, no. See also: FUCK no.

Blessedly, I could afford it. But the whole thing just pisses me off so much....

#Medicare4All would save lives, improve quality of life AND reduce costs.

OMFG WHY can't my dr's office figure out how to request the freaking GENERIC!?

I've been fighting (this round) off and on for three months now to get this straightened out after my insurace changed, and FOR SOME REASON, my Dr's office can't figure out how to operate their prescription portal, so I keep getting slapped with $1.5K copays for a drug that should be a copay of $10.

HOPEFULLY we've now got it straightened out from the insurance side, but WTAF....
