Or really any other company that jerks you around for profit?
Real question.
Every single time I interact with my healthcare, they drag me through some maze of processes where they're just waiting for some minor clerical error so they can deny a claim. Then like, they'll "screw up" and deny a claim through multiple rounds of review, only to approve it 6 months later after sucking away weeks of my life fighting it.
The maze they set up has me going to places multiple times, and getting turned away because X doctor isn't in Y system because it's two separate systems that are not meant to go together, but they were the cheapest options so my insurance will only cover them.
I actually need a better way to cope with this because I'm putting off healthcare because I dread the fight. And whenever I'm fighting it, I'm just picturing myself trying to fight claims when I'm fighting cancer on chemo or something and I just don't know how I'd manage.
How do you all manage? (if you even have healthcare at all)
No healthcare, I'll eat shit if anything bad happens to me, but at least routine care is easy. Call a couple places for an estimate (they have to give you one now), make appointment, pay. My next physical is supposed to cost $73. Flu shot is $25 at Costco. Etc. I'll get a catastrophic plan eventually.
