Knut 🏳️🌈 🇳🇴🧸@SrRochardBunson Despite our best efforts, there is no way to keep this totally private. I have C-PTSD, and once I started a job, and got insurance. And I started putting my meds, and my therapy, and my psychiatrist on the insurance, and took out an Aflac MH policy because if it gets bad, I have to be hospitalized. All theoretically private. The HR person calls me in and says "You're new, and we've seen a lot of MH stuff on the insurance, and want to know you're okay". Excuse me? That's Nunya
shadows@praetor @SrRochardBunson years back I read that most decently-sized companies in U.S. run their own insurance plans under the branding of an insurance company. I don’t know the full details, but it obviously has some problems for the employees. Found this page with a little more info: https://www.siia.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageid=7533 In 2000, 33% (50 million) of people with private insurance through their employer had a plan like this.

@shadows @SrRochardBunson Companies do group policies, and the insurance administrator can see what has been charged to it. They can't see who. But they can see what. But like in my case, I was new, and all of a sudden all these mental health things showed up. So it's not hard to figure out who the who is.
