Money Problems

When the 22-year-old son needed medical clearance before going off to law school, the mom called her excellent physician for a referral.

Oh! The doctor would begin taking new patients on July 1st!!!! Great, the son would like an appointment!

“What insurance does he have?”

Same as his mother. Blue Cross PPO.

Nevermind.

The doctor is no longer taking patients with Blue Cross insurance.

WTF?

“Oh yes, their reimbursement rates are horrible now. They hardly pay for anything after the initial $15.00 co-pay by the patient.”
