Considering the amount we cost in health care it seems like a reasonable check and balance. The continuous Ingenix subrogation letters are a pain, but they've never denied a claim.
Unfreaking believable. Our healthcare options BLOW, slowplay. I'm literally at a loss for words other than just sitting here shaking my head.
UHC is a good healthcare provider, but our options are so dang limited under the plans we have and there's so much out of pocket... it's ridiculous. I was excited when I got hired and saw UHC... but it's been a big disappointment.
Even worse that I know you're on the inside at ALPA...
