Does humanachoice Ppo (H45691176) cover part C
Health insurance has become far to complex but certainly not competitive. One can spend more time trying to find a suitable plan than the time is worth. Better to go without insurance and just pay as you go than to waste hours and hours trying to find the right plan. Much of this nonsense is due to the ACA. It has good points and some very bad points.
Who the hell ins the insurance industry gives a damn about the patient as long as they get their fat bonus every year.
How does Humana choice PPO pay on surgery?
I’d like to know why a discount isn’t included in my Humanachoice Florida (PPO). I have never had a health insurance plan that didn’t offer some sort of a discount for hearing aids. When people become Medicare age, many need hearing aids, including myself. I have to be honest, I’m going to search for a possible advantage plan that may offer one.
